I Took last year off because very late in the game (and because of 9/11), Gary had to cancel his Cho Oyu trip. Ironically, my 1994 trip was a Cho Oyu "trek" (the Chinese chose that year to put their one way seal on the border at the Nangpa La). The picture is one of me at the K2 "Gilkey Memorial", in front of Allison's plaque, taken in 1997 Tony Tonsing
