    Keep warm, patient, strong and positive! You are doing great out there by the sound of it but we have to pray harder for the snow to go away… God bless!

    I would talk to the front desk. 3 guys in a tent seems a bit crowded, worthy of a negative Yelp review.

    Climb strong and safe to Camp 2. Love Dad

    You’re one of the most mentally strongest people I’ve ever met. You’re doing things nobody’s done that I’ve ever met. So those are good odds. You’ve got this. We’re all supporting you from afar and so in awe at your courage.
    Keep living your dream!!

    I’m stoked to hear that the progress has been smooth so far and envy the three guys in a tend on a mountain. Keep those spirits high and keep pushing forward, safely my friend!! You’ve got a lot of people rooting for you and sending good vibes your way from back home. Looking forward to hearing about a successful move to C3!!

    Why were you out zigzagging about? Were you hunting for a flatter place to camp? Obviously, I think it is time for more questions. So, does the Karakoram range have its version of the Abominable Snowman? Do you plan on skiing down after summitting? How about trying a toboggan or is that too tame for you?

    As I sat in my freezing cold windowless office today, I thought that at least I had a policy-breaking space heater and poor John, wait, he had Garrett and Geoff to keep him toasty. Life can’t be too bad. Stay warm, safe and keep up the teamwork, even if it means learning how to synchronize when you turn over in your sleep. Good wishes to all of you!
