A very nice shot of a climb that looks like a lot of fun. I was there at the foot of the peak, but for various reasons we couldn´t attempt the peak. We just had to stand there and look and drool.

Next time.

A beautiful area as well!

Congrats to Gordon and you!

	Voted 10/10	Thank you, Janne! I'm sure you'll make it there soon, at the rate you're measuring the planet. I love what you did with the pages of the Himalayas. Good job!

	Hasn't voted	Thanks Nelson! Also thanks for your advice prior to the trip- we ended up checking out Serengeti, Ngorongoro, & Lake Manyara for safari.
