ok I will make sure of it!!! hhhhahaha. I finish work tomorrow and then have 9 weeks off to unwind

I think the difference between the days when we were acclimatizing


and summit day are quite clear.


And I didn't even take pictures at the worst moments... .

Anywayz, just want to say that the pictures are finally online here.

Damn that sucks!!!!! I hope I summit on a day like that cloudless day that you had.....better luck next time mate!

If you plan to do it on a day like that, make sure you can protect yourself from the sun. Most people I saw going up were completely covered in sunscreen, but still came back with swollen faces and hands from the sun... . That glacier can get really hot

Reminds me of the episode when I was sitting by Priut 11 with the guardian watching a girl going down towards the valley. Her head was wrapped up in towels and clothing, only her sunglasses and a red nose full of blisters poked out.
We quickly nicked her "black alpinista" due to the resemblences of "the mummy"!
Sun can be bad indeed.

Saw plenty of people like that. It feels cold, but you are burning as if you are on the sun.

Wouter....i did it mate:-)....but it nearly killed me

i will try to add some pics and sign the climbers log when i get home....but for now I have two long flights back to Oz!
Just thought I would let you all know I am safe and well
