Endgame Exercise

My apologies for inactivity this past month. My chess time has been devoted mostly towards preparing my annual chess camp workbook. Now, however, with it submitted to the publisher, I'm looking at old chess lessons from many years ago. Playing around with an endgame my opponent muffed fifteen years ago, I created this position.

White to move

What must White do?

    1. That should work. But, maybe Black will try 2...h4. Then what?
