Full team official “stache” before pic! We do have to fully clean shave for the oxygen masks to fit best. Apparently i’m allowed to say it’s GO TIME TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💪💪🙏🏻🙏🏻⛰️ About to head to the sherpa puja ceremony where we and all our gear get blessed for a safe and successful climb!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I bought a SIM card in KTM to try and get my SAT device to work. The shop needed my passport and thumb prints. This is a good reminder not to take my gloves off this time!!!! 😳😆 Hey if I don’t laugh…

BIG Everest update: Because of our delay here in EBC (been here for 6 days already and probably another week to wait) and that the majority of us have some type of ailment (I’ve got the traditional Khumbu cough and a couple guys are on antibiotics) we’ve been given the opportunity to fly back down to Kathmandu for 2-3 nights for some R&R. This would allow our bodies a chance to reboot, recover, and reset…SLEEP like we’re dead and eat ravenously, and fly back here ready to GO UP!!! We don’t even know if helis will fly tomorrow, so either tomorrow or Monday!!!
