Great story and beautiful pictures. Congratulations. Sounds like the
cobwebs are out and fresh air is in!

Great photos! What camera did you use? What did you have to do to get it to
work in the cold?

Thanks! Camera is a Sony DSC-71 -- smallish size, 3.2 megapixels. I
carried it in the chest pocket of my inner layer (underneath my
Schoeller jacket) so it stayed pretty warm. I found on this trip and
this past summer in Peru that the key is keeping the camera warm and
taking it out for short periods of time (ie when you're taking
pictures). When I'm rock climbing I generally just clip it to my
harness and it works fine.
