Greetings to all from Camp 2: 3,860 metres!
After completing our move to Camp
1 yesterday, we've already begun moving our equipment to Camp 2. It took us 7
hours to ascend 860 metres and just 40 minutes to ski back down to Camp 1. At
this altitude, everything you do becomes an effort - even putting your clothes
on in the morning!
We expect it to take us another 2 or 3 days of moving the rest of our gear
before we can call Camp 2 home. However, having to make several carries to
each camp helps us to acclimatize to the altitude. Tomorrow, we'll definitely
take a rest day as we've been going strong for six days now - and besides -
it's Sunday!
Cheers everyone!
Logan '96 Team
