Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro

I n the debut installment of his new column, "Unbound," Boyd Matson writes of propelling his teenage progeny, Erica and Taylor, up the rocky and snowy slopes of Africa's highest peak.

Read more about the family that climbs together in the July/August 2006 issue of National Geographic Traveler.
