Since our acclimatization process is complete,we will rest at the base camp and wait for a weather window for a summit attempt.Some group are trying to summit on the seventh,but we've had so much snoe lately that the fixed line above yhe south col aren't in place.We don't want to risk having the Sherpas hurry to set the lines and then have to change them later.On thus mountain,patience is nessesary for a safe and successful climb.
We were right on schedule to be one of thr earlier groups to make an attempt on the summit.but I didn't want to rush anything,especially with the resent snowfall.As much as I wanted to summit,I was committed to being safe and making wise choices.Climbing Mount Everest isn't just about skill and stragetic planning,there's also patience and some luck involved.No amount of preparation can help you if the weather doesn't cooperation once you've acclimatized and are ready to make your final ascent.I was glad that part of my mental preparation for the trip had been focusing on returning home safely,no matter the outcome of the climb.
