Great TR, Harvey, and absolutely mind-blowing pix! Looks like you had a lot of clear skies to work with, and more than your share of great memories to bring back along with the photos. The illusion is incredible of Everest seeming so close you could almost reach out and touch it.

Glad to hear the knees are recuperated and you've gained the weight back. The altitude, terrain and, apparently, local food/water took their toll, but I'm sure it was worth it. Thanks for sharing. I bet the Appalachians looked minuscule when you returned.
