I bought a full one piece summit suite from an outfitting company called RAB - they make high quality gear and it fit me perfectly, albeit I look like a big yellow banana. Before I purchased a pair of puffy down pants but after reconsidering I decided to go with the one piece snow suite since it keeps your body warmer on summit day since heat distributes up and down the suit. It’s like a sleeping bag with legs and arms😀. I wrapped up some last minute business items before I stash my laptop in the bag I’ll leave behind at the hotel. Our taxi pickup is 6:30 am so we should be in the helicopter by 8:00 am heading to Lukla and then onto Everest Base Camp. The rope fixing teams are leaving tomorrow to set the fixed ropes from Camp 4 to rev summit. There will be a team directly behind them ready to summit after that takes place. We will likely be in the second wave leaving on Sunday night. Reaching Camp 2 Monday, then Camp 3 Tuesday, Camp 4 Wednesday and summiting on Thursday and returning to Camp 2 mid Thursday afternoon. If all that happens we return to EBC Friday…. But A LOT can change.
