And we can see why one of the lads actually, unfortunately, was getting sick on the way up.

So we had to come back down.

And then

he had looked like two days later and he was looking up just to miss, there was a bit of an avalanche and just missed it.

So he was a bit shook after that.

But yeah, so we head up to camp two, stayed up there for about two days, just rested, ate and stuff like that and then headed back down.

And now the intention is to go all the way to the summit next time we go up.

You just kind of, you don't want to go to the icefall too many times and plus the season is,

It's coming to an end.

This time last year, the summer was well open.

So you're trying to mitigate the queues and stuff like that as well.

Yeah, so that's actually one of the big worries, to be honest with you, because the first weather window, which a lot of people do go up in, was completely missed.

Now it's the one we were planning on going up.

So there's 800 climbers over here this year, including Sherpas.

So that's the most permits they've ever really given out.

So now there's only a small weather window.

So with queues, it is probably going to be a little crazy.

So look, we're trying to work out where we summit in the nighttime, where we go in the day, something like that.

Just trying to work out how we'll get around the queues, because then there's eight.

you don't want to be up in the dead zone standing in the queue for an hour freezing probably going to be minus 30 minus 40 and you can only imagine standing there for an hour you'd be you'd be in bits so yeah so look we're trying to work around that I think we have a fairly good plan and stuff like that and look we're going early as well so hopefully once you go up there won't be too much queues now I know we're well aware that there will be queues this year and so it's just kind of mitigating the the the
