             These pictures, 
              and the comments with them, cover my first Himalayan trek, around 
              Manaslu (just east of the Annapurnas) at the beginning of my trip 
              to Nepal, India, and Europe in 1994-95. The pictures are presented 
              in chronological order of the trip, as I followed the path sketched 
              out (roughly) in red. You know the drill: click on a little picture 
              on this page to enlarge it.
