| Part III: Up to Base Camp |

|
Our lead climbing team departs for Base Camp, ferrying the first load of supplies up
to the starting point. Note the treacherous footing. |
 |
After a strenuous climb, the site for Base Camp is located at a flat spot on the lip
of a cliff. Base Camp will be our home while we adjust to the oppressive altitude. |
