Three Trekkers have made it up the mountain to claim their cash prize during the finale of The Summit Australia 2023!
While the episode began with Lulu Hawton, Brooke Kilowsky, Isaac Compton and Jans Andrea completing day 14, the latter was swiftly eliminated, after Lulu opened a duffle bag from the Mountain’s Keeper and named him runner-up.
After Jans’ exit, the tension was palpable as the eliminated contestants returned via chopper. They were then made the judge and jury, tasked with deliberating over how much money each person would receive.
But first, Lulu, Isaac and Brooke had to plead their case.
Brooke’s pitch centred on her social isolation upon arrival and her gratitude for building new relationships, before concluding her pitch with a poignant account of how fate had dealt her a bad hand and how she was now seeking to reinvent herself.
Isaac argued that his friendships were stronger than any potential foe, and proudly talked of his personal growth, while Lulu made a plea for equal compensation, citing that all three finalists put in equal effort to secure the top spot.
Here’s how much money each Trekker received
Brooke’s bag contained $150k – which would evidently help her children take a step towards a new life, while Lulu received a $90k share.
However, the biggest chunk went to Isaac. He walked away with $250k!
Congratulations to this year’s Trekkers!
