This photo-dispatch was sent by Dan Stensland, who took some great shots of the trek to the Annapurna basecamp. Dan made a point to note that both he and Don made the entire approach in flip-flops. Enjoy these images, and expect more to come (click on images to enlarge).
Its insultingly cold outside, but you dont want to dress in an Everest-style cover-all just to stay warm. The North Face Womens Caroline Down Coat wraps from your neck to your knees in warm, 600-fill goose down, and adds a flattering waist-belt to boot.
