Olympic Torch In The Himalayas

According to this story at Outdoor News Wire, a team of Italians have reached the summit of Makalu, and brought the Olympic Torch from Torino along with them. The "Torch of Peace", as it is also known, was blessed by the Dalai Lama as well. I'm assuming the torch will continue on to China in time for the 2008 games, but I'm not positive about that.
