I've translated Næss' quote from Norwegian. In case my translation should be flawed in any way. Here is the original quote in Norwegian: "Hvis jeg ikke ville tatt risiko hadde jeg heller spilt tennis eller golf." Mendalus 17:49, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I guess there was a mountain high enough.

[edit] First ascents

The line At the age of 19 Næss jr. already had twenty first ascents of Norwegian mountains under his belt. effectively says that he was the first person at the top of 19 Norwegian mountains in the mid 20th century. This seems rather unlikely. Surely this should be 19 first ascents of climbing routes on Norwegian mountains? --JBellis 16:11, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
