I know a lot of people train for it on Mt Rainier. I was thinking about doing that sometime next year as my first summit. You do that one yet?
2010 GFY gathering... Mt Everest.  Last one to the top has to pay for the sherpas.

7summits.com had the Mt Everest at ?10000, and I've seen it at similar prices in quite a few places. Private sherpas make it more expensive, ofcourse, but personally I'd just feel like I "cheated" if I had one of those (the sherpa, after all, would be much more hardcore than me).
I'm planning on doing most of my training in the Alps, and later on some in the Himalayas. Ofcourse, Mt Everest isn't my ultimate goal - my big dream is some day doing K2
