Thanks Sharon! Much appreciated. It looks like it has gone over OK, so I'll keep it around.

I might on occasion post more cultural shots, provided they are in the context of a mountain journey, otherwise there could be justifiable grumbling.

Thanks again, and for your vote on the Kangchenjunga page, which turned into a month-long project. - Nelson
