Now why that particular terrace VF, why not the one below or the one above? Or was it like a lot of my landings? ie the one with the cow pat, or ant mound, or poison ivy, or pop up sprinkler, or.......

Interesting graphic on scaling Mt Everest

Scaling Mt. Everest: A scroll up the icy path - Washington Post

Hey VF, Helicopters get a mention at 23000 ft.
And also the controversy at 20500 ft
Keep posting those great photos.
