Tengboche our next camp is visible atop the central wooded ridge. Looks like it is going to be a 'good views' day!

Finally a clear view of Mont Blanc Summit

The Top of (W) Europe

Until you get to here - at 4807m - the highest point in W. Europe

Kanchenjunga Above the Clouds

29 May 2006 230
Kanchenjunga (8586m) viewed from Sandakphu, looking towards Sikkim. The clear air is no doubt helped by the altitude - 3630m. Just around the corner (or over a small mound) you can also get a view of Everest, but the cloud wasn't as good in that direction and it is much further away. Best viewed large to see more detail - there's a red-robed monk in there somewhere.

Almost There

More than one I'm sure and taking a keen interest in hikers visiting their home.

Something Missing?

We were there!

Mt Whitney Summit Situation

As you might expect the summit makes a fabulously airy viewpoint.
