A 7-year-old Texas girl has made history – by being the youngest girl to climb Mount Kilimanjaro – the highest mountain in Africa.
Montannah Kenney of Austin climbed the 19,341-foot mountain with her mother, Hollie Kenney, who is a former professional triathlete.
The duo climbed the mountain to honor Montannah’s dad, who passed away when she was 3.
“The higher I go, the closer I am to him in heaven,” Montannah said.
Kenney is a second-grader at River Ridge Elementary School.
