An unusual increase of the conductance with temperature is observed in clean quantum point contacts for conductances larger than 2e^2/h. At the same time a positive magnetoresistance arises at high temperatures. A model accounting for electron-electron interactions mediated by bound- aries (scattering on Friedel oscillations) qualitatively describes the observation. It is supported by numerical simulation at zero magnetic field.
