At this very moment Johan Ernst Nilson is in the middle of one of his greatest adventures– The Seven Summits; to reach the highest point on every continent. Mount Everest will comprise the seventh and final summit on the expedition. The last stage will begin on Johan's home soil in Stockholm and continue to the Himalayas. You can follow Johan's adventure on a daily basis via films, images, maps and diary here at the Anoto site.

Johan Ernst Nilson is now one of Europe's most qualified explorers. With no fewer than 20 expeditions behind him spanning seven continents, few others can match Johan's breadth and versatility. A kayak voyage from the heart of Stockholm to Africa, a cycle trip from Stockholm to the Sahara, climbing and research trips to the likes of Antarctica, Tibet, Mongolia, Amazonia, Greenland, Papua New Guinea, Alaska and the Magnetic North Pole.

Johan is a normal guy who does unusual things and he sometimes gets us thinking – maybe I could do that too. What makes Johan unique as an adventurer is that he uses advanced technology under the most extreme conditions. During his expeditions, Johan will use Anoto Extreme Functionality (Digital Pen and Paper) for storing text and graphics under extreme conditions. All communication will be wireless for optimal mobility.
