If all goes according to plan, late today 12-year-old Matt Moniz will reach the summit of Mauna Kea, Hawaii’s highest point at 13,796 feet.While this is quite a feat in and of itself, when Matt reaches the top of that inactive volcano, he will have topped off another amazing feat: having climbed the 50 highest peaks in all 50 states, in fewer than 50 days."It's been an amazing experience," Matt told CBS News from his Boulder, Colo. home before his flight to Hawaii. "It’s a big risk, but we take it seriously and make sure all of our gear is right."
