It is a feat most adults would never even contemplate - a seven-hour gruelling climb up 4438ft.
But 11-year-old Caitlin Connor, of Cambuslang, has done just that to raise money for a climbing charity which helps disadvantaged young people.
Caitlin, who hopes to become a professional climber one day, completed the momentous task at The Glasgow Climbing Centre on Saturday, raising more than £1,100 for charity Urban Uprising.
The youngster had never completed an endurance challenge before and only began climbing in January last year, but has already achieved well in the sport.
She is the Scottish speed climbing champion in her age group and hopes to make the Scotland squad later this year.
Caitlin said: "Since I've started climbing, I've gained strength, technique and confidence, as well as making a lot of new friends.
"I was first introduced to Urban Uprising through The Climbing Academy and I decided I'd like to help give others the life changing opportunities that climbing has given me."
Urban Uprising, which already helps young people in deprived areas of Brazil, plans to open a project in Dumbarton in Glasgow later this year.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
