Who climbed the steepest slope?
 The Royal Mountaineering Society has a dilemma. This year, 3 climbers are competing for the Steepmeister Cup, an award given to the person who climbs the steepest slope. The Society's membership has to determine who the winner is based on two points from each member's climb. Determine which mountaineer climbed the steepest slope.
