Re: Very nice!

Oh wow, gee I remember that beautiful shot, the funny thing is I didn't know where it was from and when I climbed the route I never connected the two!

Thanks for pointing me to it. My picture may be nice, but it's not in the same class!!

Amazing!

This is just such an astonishingly beautiful ridge! A superb photo!
What a thrill it must have been to climb there!
Cheers,
Koen

Re: Amazing!

Thanks Koen, it really is, and heck, it's got views and situations of a caliber well above its scale. This is nice for a "relaxed" feeling that enhances the enjoyment!

What a step!

One foot on the distant range and the other on the nearby ridge :)

Outstanding picture!

Re: What a step!

Ha, you are totally right Hans...zooming in, the fella appears to stand on the blue mountains behind. I thought it was funny how incredibly skinny his leg looked :D.

Enjoy the winter,
