Hi, Logan here, your old Muir base camp manager, just saying hello and keep up the good work! I’m a year away from my MD degree now, and hope to be a climbing team’s doctor some day. Stay hydrated, and keep an eye on each other!

Thank you very much for great dispatches and videos! I’ve been following you daily as well as my Croatian girls, and am very glad to see both teams are doing great! Looking forward in following you all the way to the top! Please keep an eye on my girls too! Be safe!

Wow, really starting to get excited now to hear that the Sherpas are making the trail to High Camp. Quick question, do the Sherpas get aclimatized well before the expedition teams arrive? Also, after watching the video about waste collection, and yeah, this is a little gross, when at ABC or when you all reach HC, what happens when “nature calls?” Do the Sherpas bring up latrine tents or do you bust out the shovel? I’m sure some enquiring minds are wondering. Hope you and your team make it back to BC safely and look forward in reading your next dispatch and watching the next video and photo entry.

It’s exciting following the climb through the dispatches and photos. Does the beauty of the mountains ever stop you in your tracks and make you want to look around in awe at your surroundings? How do you respond when climbing with a client or climbing partner? Safe climbing!
