Everest from Nepal, all programs »
The 8000 Club guide Viktor Volodin reports from the Everest Base Camp:
Greetings from Nepal! Today there was not just a busy day, but a very busy one. So, everything is in order, first we had ice classes. On them, we remembered and fixed the work with the jumar on the ascent and descent along a fixed rope with a trigger device. We also practiced moving up the stairs through the cracks. Then we had a puja, a blessing ceremony for good and great things. After the puja, ice classes were held again to consolidate the material.
