Though I assume you're not finished yet, let me reward you with four of the spikey ones! The page is excellently written so far and the upcoming pictures look very promising. One of the large blanks on SP has been filled! Thanks for posting!
Amazing photos and great route description. Looks like one of the most beautiful spots on earth... Have to admit though, looking at this page doesnt make me feel like a REAL mountain climber now hehe.
Very nice! The photos are quite inspiring. I especially enjoy the human interest photos of porters, villagers, and daily life. It's not just about the mountains and the altitude, but the people as well. Bravo.

Thank-you all! Ive just noticed that with the addition of G2 it now completes all the 14 8000ers for Summit Post - that makes the 4 hours spent finding the pics from a badly organised file of thousands hopefully worth it!
Great page Dave (I presume) about amazing corner of the planet and fascinating images! I enjoyed reading every single word on this page, it is beautifully written! Oh how I wish to visit Baltoro and Concordia!
this is a great page, written by someone who has really own experiences to climb 8K-peaks. I cannot find advertising here, but for my taste the letters in the pictures are much too big and effect their beauty.

Thanks for your comments, Im glad you enjoyed the page.
You will see a watermark/insignia on some of my images - I concur with the people who have commented on this. I accept that it diminishes the viewing quality of the image, but alas I have not had the time to re-scan these pics, they have come straight from a PC file of 8000+ images, and many of the prime slides are held up with publishers around the world. When I am able to, I will re-set the images.
