Hasn't voted | Thanks, to be honest I was hoping that it would get photo of the hour title, but I guess there is something about the timing when to post etc.
Anyway, knife edge is absolutely fantastic!!!! I have about 10 more similar photos. It is dropping thousand feet on each side - and photo from the plane would capture that! However, the approach to this point is long and arduous. | | Posted Aug 5, 2009 9:41 am |

Hasn't voted | hey marc, I am currently buzzed, so do not really care. hahaha. I opened a bottle of rose, and am hoping to finish it, but I think it is easier to climb a Capitol Peak... | | Posted Aug 5, 2009 11:55 pm |

Hasn't voted | The drop is about 1,000 feet. 1,800 feet at the top of the mountain down the north face. Not that it matters. That's plenty for sure! | | Posted Sep 8, 2009 11:43 pm |

Hasn't voted | Hi Jason, I think that I took better photos than you... hehe Sorry, again was drinking some wine...My wine cooler is too full... | | Posted Sep 8, 2009 10:42 pm |

Voted 10/10 | I would've puked! I have a phobia of heights and just looking at this almost makes me nauseated. It's a great view with a nice perspective though.
Cheers,

Voted 10/10 | Classic ridge, classic image! Good work. Most people are too nervous to take a photo there :) | | Posted Oct 27, 2009 9:23 pm |

Voted 10/10 | You would expect people to be nervous but look how relaxed Liba looks in this picture her partner took. Rocking the Knifes Edge | | Posted Oct 27, 2009 10:39 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks, I actually love exposure and especially the adrenaline rush I get... it is like a drug...
I met Jason on the ascent towards K2. I usually hike solo, or with my dog (but did not want to take her on this one). | | Posted Oct 28, 2009 7:12 pm |
