Hi Guys!

I climbed and summited Carstensz on December 15, 2006 and here are some pics of my trip in Papua. To see more pics of Carstensz and other 7 summits, go to my website at www.michelwaechter.com.

Nice Fellow in Wamena!


This is Carstensz Pyramid.


Cliff Dargonne at the first notch on a tyrolean traverse, pretty cool!

Hey Mike!

Nice photos! It really does seem like you step back in time in that region. Well done on #5. What a challenge it was just to get to BC! So, are the remaining peaks Everest and McKinley? I wish you the best on these climbs.
