I am seriously thinking of doing it next year. I live in Seattle but grew up in the bay area.
Possibly Shishapangma, since there might be a group forming headed by a well known European guide. Shishapangma is almost as technically straightforward as Cho Oyu but much less crowded. The exception is the main summit which is a difficult traverse from the central summit (both are over 8000m)
Anyone in the northwest thinking about an 8K next year?

NumberNine is Cho Oyu still in your plans?
