Tom_Sjolseth Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Don Goodman, Don Beavon and team just completed a successful trip to the India Himalayas which included three first ascents of peaks around 21,000' in the Karakorum region. This was a joint venture including a team of climbers from India. I just want to say congratulations to the entire team and especially my 61 year old father, Dan Sjolseth, who introduced me to hiking/climbing at the young age of 6 years old. This is to you pops .. you deserve it! Quote
pms Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 Cool, Great to hear your dad had a good trip. Post a picture or 3 when you get the chance. Supposedly some new secret peaks. Quote
Tom_Sjolseth Posted September 3, 2005 Author Posted September 3, 2005 Apparently the expedition was filmed by National Geographic and will be appearing sometime in the future on the NG channel. I hope to see some photos sometime by early next week and will ask my Dad if he can post some. Â All I've seen thus far is a postcard of one of the peaks, and the peak depicted looks amazing. Quote
