    Our first (good) view of Everest. It was such an amazing couple of days up there we have a shitload of Qomolongma (Everest) photos. I have tried to cull them here to just a few, but it's hard it was so beautiful!: by gretch_costa, Views[319]

         		 Why don't we dress our horses up like that?: by gretch_costa, Views[181]
         		 Mmmmm...beer stop - probably shouldn't at altitude, but it's better than the ubiquitous yak butter tea! : by gretch_costa, Views[143]
     
    One of the longest downhil single tracks I've ridden - the beauty of the Himalayas: by gretch_costa, Views[175]
         		 Some single track, just for fun!: by gretch_costa, Views[198]

         		 Looking back down the climb from the turn-off to Base Camp (a different 5000m pass to the previous photo!). 42 switchbacks to laboriously count on the way up: by gretch_costa, Views[188]
     
    We we both pretty stoked to get to the top of this pass. We were both feeling the altitude (dizzy and a bit nauseous), pus we'd had a wicked head wind the whole way up...by the way, the sign post is kilometers from Shanghai!: by gretch_costa, Views[176]
         		 Somehow we managed to find the energy to climb some hills after riding. This is above our camp which was the start of a very long climb (for the next days riding): by gretch_costa, Views[153]
         		 Alfresco dining: by gretch_costa, Views[178]
         		 Costa had some willing hands at this camp spot: by gretch_costa, Views[157]
         		 We swam in this river which was surprisingly warm...must have been a hot spring nearby (or a big yak herd): by gretch_costa, Views[207]
     
    This gracious old lady was off to make tea out of whatever that grass-like stuff is she is holding...it didn't smell great!: by gretch_costa, Views[228]
         		 A long way from anywhere when you break down: by gretch_costa, Views[188]

         		 note the kettle perched in the 'satellite-dish'....a very effective way of boiling the kettle in a land devoid of trees: by gretch_costa, Views[203]
     
    This photos doesn't do it justice, but the geology out here is amazing....nice flowers too: by gretch_costa, Views[217]

         		 Costa at Gyanste monastery, back to 3500m so hot and sunny: by gretch_costa, Views[144]
         		 A tragic scene for the live chickens...the colander-looking thing minced the used chicken bones after the flesh had been removed. I thought the Buddhists were nice - just human I suppose...: by gretch_costa, Views[195]
     
    A dammed section, lots of abandoned buildings in terrain much like Lake Dunstan: by gretch_costa, Views[290]
         		 Typical scenes...barley and Tibetan style houses, usually made of mud-brick and caked with yak dung drying for winter fuel: by gretch_costa, Views[213]
