20+KG rucksacks and looking like Christmas trees, we struggled to our ultimate destination at the top of the glacier… had to do a little kit dump half way…
Negotiating a few small crevasses, we found the perfect camping spot. It’s surrounded on three sides with nice clean snow, our water source. Oh and don’t forget the essential sizeable toilet rock.
Pegging down the tents was an interesting experience. We ended up using everything but pegs. The whole group was shattered but prepared to do it all again tomorrow to pick up the rest of our food.
BSES HQ receives expedition field updates weekly so check back every Monday to see what has happened in the week gone by.
