Clear morning, bright skies,...

Clear morning, bright skies, for half an hour. Then a darker shade of blue arrived and gale force winds started whip away the clouds which tried to assemble around the big peaks. NOT a day you want to be high up on any of the "G's". I was on my way to C2 on Gasherbrum II/III, but turned back. Photo shot from 5800m, about an hour's walk away from C1.

Re: WOW

All climbers who had been up high on any of the peaks in the area, talked about really hard winds. Even in C1 it was pretty rough at times.
