hi guys made it to camp 1 16k feet wild windy snowy and freezing BUT I am feeling so strong! I made it up with my pack loaded no porter which was to my mind a triumph it was 8 hours up and down we stashed some supplies up there and then came back down its all acliamtisation. So at base camp now and haed up tomorrow so probably will be out of contact til I either do it or not! I am feeling really good physically, its a bit of a mind F.... being on my own gudes are great but one can slightly dwell on where I am!! But part from that it is so sodding windy it just doesn,t stop really cold and windy all the time. I am supremely confident physically but the weather is wild and windy and cold so that truly is my enemy and I am goinmg to do exactly what I think is right I am not obssesed with the summit if the cold and wind carry on I will have no worries in coming down it is a huge challenge to have got this far I stink no shower for a week and pooing in a hole!! Its not home!
all love J XXXX
