The Big Dig At Camp 1

September 18, 2012

Digging out the tents at C1 (Phunuru Sherpa)

We took another rest day today while the Sherpa team went up to Camp 1 to dig out the tents and pull the fixed lines out of the snow. There’s 6 inches of fresh snow here at Base Camp but the Sherpa reported a meter at Camp 1. The good news is that the lines to C1 are still in place and all the tents and gear at C1 are in good shape.
