FoxClocks 2.9.35

FoxClocks 2.9.35 is awaiting approval from the editors at addons.mozilla.org (which typically takes upwards of two weeks); you can download it here, or wait for it to be approved, at which point Firefox should automatically download the new version.

If you’re experiencing Firefox lockups on Mac, do consider downloading this version.

[Edited from 2.9.33.]

Back to Nepal, Part II: Tsum, Manaslu and Annapurna, November 2009

After some downtime in Kathmandu, I joined the legendary yakshaver and friends for a walk round the Manaslu massif, including a detour to the remarkable Tsum valley. As the Manaslu trail wound down I headed west and north on the trail round Annapurna, while the rest of the group returned to Kathmandu. Here are some photos; descriptions to follow. Honestly.
