Recap........
OK, I've been out of touch with the whole blogging thing, no excuses.
2010- OK, how do I start to express how much it changed my view on life and how it changed me. I'm only 17, but it feels like I've been on this mortal coil for so much longer. Why?
From the last post,Yep, I did get through to the Himalaya expedition :) We spent a month in North Pakistan, Karakoram! The trip took us onto Baltorro Glacier, we researched the affect of Climate Change on the icy wilderness, we were the "Ginni-pigs" for the Mayo Clinic, and then Mike Horn lead an assault on an Uncharted "Virgin" Peak. We summited it, all 6170m's of it PANGAEA Peak!!
What made this something truly unique- the people of Pakistan. We get this stereotypical impression from our western ideals that the Middle East is full of bombs and violence, however all i saw was friendly and helpful people who live in a harsh and different environment.
