End of The Acclimatisation

Dear All,

Its been a rough week on Everest for us. We completed our acclimatisation but it was cut short thanks to the first wave of the monsoon. The snowfall at 7000 meters was over 30 CM and it continued to dump as we made our way back to ABC. We spent a total of a week above 6000 meters. I must say that this latest acclimatisation run took its toll on all of us.

I am not really sure what to say but the team is a mixed bag. There are folks with some experience and there are many without. There are some strong folks and some which are suffering dramatically; either from infections, altitude, or fatigue.

I still remain among the stronger folks in the team and believe that I am in the first summit group, however my batteries are at an all time low. The weather and compressed time schedule has me really in need of a massive rest. I am hoping the next few days in Shegar will recharge me, as we are looking at May 15 as the weather window. If not, I am sorry to say that I may have to give it a miss…

I am trying to recover as best as possible before the weather…

As for whats been going on, well we have ascended to the North Col (7000 meters), where we spent the night in a small snow storm… Although we did not climb to the North Col 2x and further to Camp II, we are fairly well acclimatised. I wish I had more news. Its been a long week and I hope to have more to write when I get some more energy.

Hope this finds you all well.

Best,
Jamie
