Re: Great!!!

Thanks much, Kelly. A couple of hours up the trail from here is where we saw snow leopard tracks! An amazing place, this valley.

Ah Nelson,

I still love your photos... And what's this, you still have more Hongu pics in your treasury?!?

Re: Ah Nelson,

Thanks much dmiki. Yes, lots more Hongu pics that I could post some day. One of those places where one could burn a lot of film. We are fortunate to have walked there.

Re: Fantastic!

Thanks very much! It would be hard to take a bad picture in this valley, but this day the clouds were unique and changing constantly. Even the Sherpas commented that it was a 'good scene'.
