Some of My Favorite Mountain Photos

At almost every presentation on Mt. Everest, I am asked why I put myself through such hardship and difficulty. After fumbling for an answer, I usually refer to my love for the mountains. Since a picture is worth more than a thousand words, I have assembled a collage of some of my favorite photos from my trips to the mountains. Hopefully, this will help with the answer to that question.
