Recovering from the big trip last week. I’m putting together a little ebook of the trip as it’s worthy of more than a simple blog post. The short version was that it was the most intense experience I’ve ever had.
Above: Typical scenery at 10,000 feet. Horizon is several kilometers away as scale is visually impossible to gauge without a map.
For the curious I have a few pictures online here.

Looking forward to hearing all about it!
Dave, those pictures are really something else. You managed some really terrific contrast and that sky was amazing.
