These pictures are amazing so I thought everyone would enjoy this entry but it’s mostly to say congrats to Kevin and Stephen<\/a> for summitting another mountain…again. Stephen has blogged about climbing here<\/a> and Everest here<\/a> and as for Kevin – he is still blogless. However, since I was guilted into blogging<\/a> by Clemens<\/a>, I’m going to pass on the guilt to Kevin… <\/P>
