Very dramatic early, spring mountain picture in March, John!
Definitely would feel cold and high-up in the atmosphere climbing-up to the top of those mountains due to the low, changeable temperatures, shadows and ever-present wind much of the year. I would need my warm, Kathmandu clothing to keep me warm if I ever went up there, even in summer. Nice just to look from ground level and appreciate the awesome landscape that God has provided for us.
