You climbedthe mountain with a fractured rib? That seems extraordinary, how did it happen?
Anyway, a beautiful photo, the mountain really lives up to its name here.

Re: You climbedThanks Ejnar
On that glacier there was every chance of getting a fractured rib falling down a crevasse (saw one very big hole suggesting someone had). However, I simply tripped over my crampons crossing a boulder field (perhaps I should have taken them off!) - and landed on a big rock chest first (better than head) - the impact cracked a rib up under my right arm... hurt a lot - and still does!

Breathtaking!I just can't resist sights like that...
Must have been quite a struggle for you, having to go down with a broken rib!!! Get well soon!
Cheers,
Eric

Re: Breathtaking!It was a long hard day even without a broken rib (I didn't know at the time - but I do now!!) - and it was worst going up (because I had my stumble down at the bottom) : (
