It's coming your direction.

So yeah, that was a day like that, you know.

And I am talking to him on the radio and I'm turning around.

And as I turned around, I see the clouds starting to pop on the opposite side of the rim, you know.

So at that time, we had no choice anymore because now you have to figure out what's going to kill you first.

And so there was the risk or the potential of an avalanche.

But at least you can see the rocks.

The gas is going to kill you before you can see it.

So I called everybody back.

We gathered our stuff.

I didn't give too much detail, but I said, it's time to go downhill and fast, which we did.

We stopped only when we were at mid-camp.

And then at that point, we saw the cloud just completely covering the summit where we were.

So we did well to bail out.

But that was 500 meters.

500 meter higher than we were.

So we are safe.

I was just making sure that it would not go down the slope where we were.

We are safe.

So we stayed and, you know, just rested for a little while.
