Photographer’s Note

As with a previous posting you don't have to give point I would preferr that.
Having retrieved the young mans body from below Yerapaju we wrapped him up and covered him with strong plastic bagging as the way down was going to be difficult.
Unfortunately as I said in the last posting related to this moment, most people see the mountain photos and other dangerous sports but never see the consequences of misfortune. Thats not to say these dangerous sports and adventures should be stopped as it is a physical and mental outlet for many men and women. It allows one to develope a strong character which stands them well lifes future hardships and gives many long lasting memories and friendship.
In a way this is for all those lost and over time forgotten. These are the sort of people that have in their way brought the human race forward with their need for exploration.
