All of our climbers and teams are above Base Camp in the thick of their acclimatization rotations. Remember, no news is good news from your climbers. We will continue to keep our blog updated as we hear more from our team.

Private climbers Michael K. with guide Dorjee, Eva S. with guide Papshe, and Varun R. with guide Thunang are all at Camp 2 for their second night. Sam and Emma Schwerin, Adam S., John W., Jocelyn C., Robert A., and our Camp 3 climber Doug C, are joining them tonight.

At Camp 1, the Bouka family is settling in for their second night after a rest and acclimatization day alongside Speed Ascenders Anna K. and Ilknur C. Tomorrow, they will move to Camp 2.

Kevin S, with guide Jangbu, and Andrea G., with Guide Robert, made excellent time to Camp 1, moving smoothly through the Khumbu Icefall. They are settled in for the night.

A fresh dusting of snow came and went, and now there are starry skies in the Western CWM with a clear weather forecast over the next few days.

At Everest Base Camp, Chef Emma and her team are enjoying a much-deserved break until the climbers return.

We are impressed with everyone’s morale and strength. All climbers and teams are doing great!  

Below, we link two videos from our YouTube channel. First is a breakdown of the route through the Khumbu Icefall (Stage 2), followed by the route from the Western CWM to the Lhotse Face (Stage 3). The Western CWM is just above Camp 1. A huge part of a climber’s preparation for a climb like Everest is visualization, so we do not doubt that many on Everest right now have watched these videos. If you’re at home, we hope this gives you a glimpse into the sights and sounds our teams are experiencing.
