Thanks, I've got lots more... when I first looked at the pics I thought for some odd reason they were only in black and white since I didn't see any color... but then, I looked around and realized the only colors there were up there was black and white, i.g., black rock and white snow... then of course blue sky above and below us... the tops of the clouds were 10,000 feet below us!!!
Good question, no, we didn't take any O2 supply, we really didn't need it for a 14,000 foot assault... the tallest Alpine mountain in Switzerland, which is also in all of Europe, was this one at 14,000 feet... had we attempted something higher, say Mt. Everest, say at 29,121 feet you do need O2, even approaching 20,000 feet, but 14,000 was very doable, just that we had to move slowly or burn what little we had available...
