8000+…… Still the next project

This spring I was back in the great Himalayas on a Lhotse Expeditions.
I tried to make it to the summit without the use of O2 and in alpin style, but other things make me turn back before the summit this time! At the time there was nothing else to do – Right now I feel like I have to come back and do the job. I was very strong and I know I will come back even stronger. Lhotse is one of the most beautiful mountains I ever climb on, and next time I hope whether, ice, family….and the mountain will be with me.
Until then – here goes some of my photos from other 8000+ mountain. Gasherbrum 2 in Pakistan and Cho Oyu in Tibet.
