Books, books, books. Being unpacked and resorted by subject and education level

Kate Cook and I sweating a lot in the woodsy part of the hike
Up, up, up
Finally out of the trees and getting up over the clouds
Steep but pretty.
We met a hunter and his pack of angry dogs at the hut. He shot a deer of some sort shown in this picture, then threw it like a backpack and hiked off.
Kate eating our meal of rice, laughing cow cheese, red pepper flakes and peanuts. Cuisine I'm not proud of but it worked. \
Lava. The worst to hike on.
Tents!
Kate and I bought some great winter hats in the market a couple days before
She's a power walker. I threatened her to go and carry the bags with the porters.
We fell a lot.
The volcanos!! See that path??
Inside one of them that erupted a couple years ago. You could still smell the sulfur
Not sure how safe this was...
