Sorry I really do not remember this particular trip as I did so many different trips in those days, but I am pleased that you do.<br /><br />I now live in Chamonix in France where I am still involved in guiding.

I am totally envious (and a little in awe). <br /><br />I went through a phase not too long ago where I flirted with the idea of going an Everest expedition myself.<br /><br />I can't recall, though. Was Brice on the mountain in '96 (the year of many fatalities)? Seems like the one expedition leader (who died) was from NZ, if I recall correctly.<br /><br />There's nothing quite like pitting our pitiful selves against Mother Nature, eh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-473538325200961460.post-76368891114108036712009-12-05T00:26:46.704+01:002009-12-05T00:26:46.704+01:00Lucky duck... very cool story..: )
