It's Crazy Golf For Canadian Climbers...

By Jon

Four Canadian climbers have set a fantastic new national record by, erm, hitting a load of golf balls off the peak of the country's highest mountain, Mount Logan.

The four reportedly carried a driver to the summit of North America's second highest peak after one of them, bought the club 'on the spur of the moment' in Whitehorse, Yukon. They carried it around for around 18 days before finally summiting Logan despite encountering fierce winds that forced around 14 other teams to turn back.

We say forget extreme ironing, high altitude golf just has to be the next big cutting edge sport. How long before we see Tiger Woods teeing off from the summit of Everest. Oh, the guys over at GOLFmagic are going to love this...

Don't believe it's true? Well, it is according to this.

Small print: Yes, we know, you can tell it's summer cos the real news is thin on the ground, but what the hell
