Outdoor Activities & Other Photography Most of my hiking and climbing has been done in the United States. The climbing has generated few pictures; I don't know how some people manage to get good rock-climbing pictures; I find it hard enough to get myself and my essential gear up things. At 6959 meters, Aconcagua is the highest peak in the world outside of Asia. I've been there twice, one in a successful ascent by the Normal Route, and once with a group trying a variation on the Polish Glacier Route. On the second trip, I developed some sort of sinusitis, and I retreated the day after I'd walked in to Base Camp. I started going to Nepal as a climber, but now all I do there is hike and take pictures. My last trip was my eleventh, and I'm vaguely looking forward to another one. To keep the download time down, pictures from Kathmandu and the Kathmandu valley have been segregated here. I have a few other photographs, not related to hiking and climbing. Some are images I'm happy with, and a few are images of phenomena that I don't understand. Page revised: 05/14/2006 10:15 |
