Did you meet a czech expedition? The same day one of them (Libor Uher) summited K2 too...at 16.45 I guess...

Re: Congrats

Yup. if you look at Libor's website, many of the photos are of him and i on the summit- and also with some of my team members. my website has a few images of him, and also a link to Libor's site. later that day, chris warner and i would rescue Libor, finding him half conscious and hypothermic, hanging on the ropes below the bottleneck. see www.sharedsummits.com for the story. Libor is an awesome guy, and his climb of the Cesen route is an amazing feat.

Awesome work!

Congratulation! One more great Canadian climber in Bishop will make locals to worry.

Re: Congratulations!

Yup- after trying a new route on the east face. The Abruzzi is fun. Scary, but fun climbing.
