Wow, what a treat to discover a photo of Dick Renshaw and Pete Boardman from Pete's final expedition. Very cool! RIP Pete Boardman and Joe Tasker.

great piece of history you have here Michael. Forgive me, but were you on that expedition? I remember Pete and Joe coming to my school not long before departing on this trip. A real tragedy......still, it had the effect of inspiring my own mediocre climbing career. thanks for sharing.
