23/09/04, Camp 1
I am back in ABC again after a few days on the mountain. When I left ABC I was
hoping to go to camp 1 (C1) the first day, further on to camp 2 (C2) at 6900
m. the second day and down again to ABC the third day.
I got up to C1 all fine. But on the second day the weather did not cooperate.
With no visability above C1 I could not advance upwards. Instead I went for a
ski down the 500 m snowslope below the camp. The visability was ok, and so was
the snow. After skiing I went up to my tent at C1. That evening I was invited
to a couple of italians for dinner. Tortellini, not bad!
The next day the weather was even worse - hard wind and snowfall. I decided
then to descend to ABC. Tomorrow, the 24:th, I’ll comence a new try to climb
the mountain. /Fredrik
