Mike’s communications in Labouche weren’t great but the team made it back to Base Camp yesterday and had some down time to take care of all the little chores that were building up. Showers, shaving, clothes washings were at the top of the list.

Tomorrow, the team will be back to the Icefall for two days of warm up and practice. Then the team will start their second rotation through the Icefall to Camp I (19,900 ft) for two nights and then Camp II (21,300 ft) for another two nights. Then back down to base camp for some R&R.
Definitely primitive living here at EBC.
