At age 13, Jordan is the youngest person to reach the summit of Carstensz Pyramid. This is an excerpt from his blog that was written by Patrick; their guide in Nabire:

And so it is. Today in the 2nd of September 2009, at 15.00 of East Indonesian Time this American Team, Paul Lewis Romero, Karen Dee Lundgren, Jordan Alexander Romero made it to the summit of Carst ensz Pyramid.

They successfully Climbed 4,884 M ASL Mt. CARSTENSZ PYRAMID Expedition Highest Peak of Australia - Oceania in Papua Island, Indonesia at 15.00 (GMT +9). Welldone my American buddy! Congratulation to you Paul, Karen and Jordan. I'm waiting for you, in Nabire, ready to bring you to the nearest medical facilities, making sure you're all OK!
