Upward over the mountain

Sorry that I am using this blog as my play ground. I just really like having all of these resources available at my finger tips, and I want to use them.

At the recommendation of Shayna, I have started reading Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace...One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin

I am about 3 pages in. But the book opens with describing the K2 mountain.

Having taken only two geography classes in my life, I had no idea what the K2 mo

untain was. So I googled it and found some really stunning pictures that I am going to share with everyone.

K2 is a mountain in Pakistan's Karakoram and is the second highest mountain in the world.

Please share any stories you might have about this mountain.
