Sapa, after Fansipan

Well we all survived, and not only that, we all made it to the top of highest mountain in Indoasia!!  The climb was not easy, lots was almost rock climbing with a pack! Team members generally took a big pack and a day pack between them, and had porters carry the extra sleeping bags etc, but the tough ones carried all their own stuff, as porters already had lots, food water(ours) and all food.  The food was unreal... cooking in those conditions is very clever, but making it so good - so much more so.. we always left food behind, they gave us so much! Veiws were spectacular, making us thank ful for the great weather So I'll give you a small taste..








Sleeping at 2800m..below 0!!

At the top
