Return to the base camp after the summit!

this Madison climbing Makaru After standing out on the fifth tallest peak in the world, the expedition has returned to the base camp safely! Just in time for dinner, the team fell into camp, ending another chapter of the expedition that challenged. The team climbed under the moon and got the star from Camp 3 Makaru’s The top ridge starts to light up the surrounding peaks as sunrises – after climbing in the dark for so long, it’s a welcome sight! Alex, deep inside us, stepped onto the top of the mountain and embraced the moment because this dream came true before turning back and falling. We are proud of this team! Adventure leader, Terray Sylvester Through this scheduling Makaru Base Camp:

Hello! This is ground call Madison climbing Makaru (8463m/27,766ft) Expedition – Today is May 12th. It was a beautiful morning at the base camp, sunny and warm, and we were relaxing after the successful summit yesterday morning! We stood on the fifth highest peak on Earth yesterday at 6:00am.

This is a great summit! We left Camp 3 at 9:30 pm on May 10, crawling through the night under most full moons, arriving Makaru’s On the top ridge before sunrise, this means we have to watch the morning sun shine brightly gangshungface of Mount Everest (8848m/29,032ft) and lhotse (8516m/27,940 feet), right next door. We can see the climber’s headlights rising Mount Everest On the southeastern ridge below the top of the mountain. Yes, it was a great summit day and then we kept dropping back to base camp last night and arrived on time for dinner at our normal time (6:00).

This is a good climb Makaru Overall Madison climbing After our teammates and friends, Alex Pancoe suddenly died in the 2nd Battalion while acclimating to the rotation. That game just got us all in a strait, but we talked about it and it was obvious to us that Alex brought it, and he brought a lot of stokes to the hill. He loved it so much that we were sure he would want us to keep climbing. So on the 8th we realized we had enough time to get to the top of the mountain in good weather and then jet winds back to the top, so we went.

We will pack up for the rest of the day, end the adventure, and we will start back to the lower altitude! We will get in touch.
