When they reached the final ascent, he had to pause for a moment.

The final ascent of the "cap" requires class 3-5 climbing.

The remainder of the day is spent resting in preparation for the final ascent before a very early night.

"I want to be the only one to make the final ascent," he replied.

Slowly, taking my time, I began the final ascent.

And now at last, as they began the final ascent, there came the first intimation of the approaching day.

After a while, the road turned for a final, long ascent over a mountain pass.

Here they would stay the night before making the final ascent the next day.

I decided to rest for a few minutes before the final ascent.

They were both hungry and needed food before making the final ascent.
