Hi all
Well we all left BC this am to carry some kit part way to the mountain. For the first time it wasn't too cloudy and we got to see the massive N.face of Klanka and Changabang as we walked up. The trek up wasn't too bad, the moraine is pretty broken and passage was ok, Nick who has been here before does say it gets a lot worse. We all got to what is known as depot camp in about 3hrs and another 2hrs saw us back down to BC. It was great to stretch the legs a little, and carry some equipment up higher.
Nick and I are undecided which line to take as yet, there seems to be a stunning ridge on the left of the face that looks really safe, but the main face also looks awesome, i think it will be weather and conditions dependant. It was great to get such good views of the hill as I have looked at pics of these mountains for over 10years and to see them up close well........
Nick is slowly getting better, we think he has just got a cold but Nick is sure that is some thing serious (must be related to getting old).
Tomorrow we will be doing a second carry and hoping the weather stays good although its raining now BOO HOO
Stay cool
Kenton
