Thanks for the update, give my boys our love we miss them and give Joe a hug for my flowers and for our postcards. Keep up the great work, lots of people are following your progress and the excitement is building!!
Those mountain peaks give a breath-stopping view. This traverse is perfect for those veteran mountaineers who are fit and intrepid.I wish I can visit the place someday and do mountaineering activities.
