Four out on the water.

These columns were brought over from the capitol when it was refurbished.

Night time in Korophon. Ignacio and Erin were going to sleep under the stars. The night was not too cold and the sky was just beautiful, so Anisa joined them and convinced me to come out there too. We fell asleep watching shooting stars and satellites passing overhead.

Our group slowly marches as Gasherbrum IV, 7925 m (26,001 ft)comes into dramatic view with the clouds slowly parting.

The sun sets as we looks towards the Trango group.

K2, in all its glory on our final morning.

Sunrise behind Gasherbrum IV.

Another night shot. The porters shelter is on the left while the right has our tents. Masherbrum is in the back. Since the exposure has to be so long to get the light, the stars show up as streaks instead of dots.

The river flwoing on the glacier before we got to Gore II. The brilliant green was in sharp contrast to the rest of the scenery.

The water created some really spectacular ice formations.

We start heading back. We were now going to get to Urdukas by the end of the day. When we had come to Concordia, we had taken two days from Urdukas. We figured we were going downhill (which is overstated), and that we were better conditioned. We got it done, but it wasn't easy.

Breakfast in front of the cathedral. Can you imagine hving breakfast with that view. It ws out of this world.

Unknown peak overlooking Gore II.

Meltwater streams cutting channels in the glacier, exposing bare ice.

The group following the path, K2 and Angel Peak in the background.

Clouds blowing over part of Broad Peak.

The peacock was however pretty amazing. It put on its show and trapped a female peacock who pretty much shrugged it off sor of like "so what"!
