Traditional culture, portraits and landscapes
Makalu, Makalu II and Chomo Lonzo on the right with the Kanchenjunga peaks on the horizon. This is looking down the Kharta Valley.
We always climb the First Step at night where it is a bit of a shock but descending is easier if you can trust the ropes.
We had a great set of radios that just kept going and are a real part of our safety.
We summited on the 5th, descended to Everest BC on the 6th and here we are driving out on the 7th of June.
Cho Oyu is in the top left corner.
The Chinese stole some of our oxygen however our climbing sherpas replaced it, so we are all set for our summit push.
The yellow band is clearly visible in the slope above Camp 3.

We were toasty but this water bottle still turned to ice.
Our tent is the relatively large dome. North Ocl has emptied out with on a few tents left, similarly Everest ABC on the far right.
