Left Foot, Right Foot: Climbing Kilimanjaro at 90

from In Depth Alaska

In this edition of In Depth Alaska, Digital Content Manager Joey Kletka talks with Art Ulene, who's aiming to climb Mount Kilimanjaro on his 90th birthday—for the fourth time. Ulene shares what drives him to keep pushing, how he trains (including 50 flights of stairs and a new hip), and why he believes "old age" is often less about years and more about avoiding self-neglect. It's a candid conversation about adventure, safety, and the best time to start planning for the last chapter of your life.
