Spike camp in Tajikistan

One of the more scenic camps I've been in, I snapped this photo of spike camp in Tajikistan. The camp was right about 15,000 feet, and most rams were between there and 15,500. Cold at nights, but the stove really heated it up when it got going.

Oh, and that valley held some pretty good rams too...

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

It was quite the luxurious arrangement (until the stove burned out around midnight!). The ram was 60" on the left horn and 58.5" on the right. Incredible mass, looked like a high altai standing on the mountain!
