Island Peak Base Camp

So after 15 days, 110km, 11000m in ascent, 3 major passes, 2 minor peaks, 7 nights in a tent and 1 new dog we have made it to Base Camp.

We are sitting at 5200m - 1000m more to the summit

We have just met with an expedition from the day before, two clients attempted the summit - 1 made it and 1 turned back at 5700m

Sitting at Base Camp it becomes very clear that this is a serious business and not everyone's dream will be realised.

I feel in good shape for the altitude and I am going to do which is give 110% and not stop until I hit my goal. There is no way that I'm going to give up.

I'll see you on the other side
