Apa Q and A

//posted by admin under Everest | May 6th, 2010

Q: It got pretty snowy while you were in camp 2. Were you worried?

 A: The weather was bad. I was a little worried for the clients. I don’t have to worry myself because I was only going to spend two nights there. But the weather wasn’t normal so I waited there. It’s very important that the clients sleep at camp 3. We kind of struggled to get people up there. We tried to push, but we didn’t want to push too hard just in case there was more bad weather.

 Q: Eventually the team had to come down before sleeping at camp 3. Was that tough decision to make?

 A: Yes, it was a tough decision. We don’t want to go through the ice fall too much. Coming down meant that the clients would have to go through it one more time. But I’m not worried for most of the members since they will be using oxygen through camp 3. So they should be fine.

 Q: So what’s next?

 A: The next decision is to rest here a couple of days. Check the weather, and then go for the summit.
