We've been busy at ABC building red blood cells and restoring glycogen. It's tough work. 8, sometimes 10, hours a day of resting, eating and drinking coffee. I'm exaggerating, but our bodies do need to recover after the stress we've put them though the last few days. During our acclimatization rotation we hauled skis and skied above 21,000 three days, spent 4 nights sleeping 21k' and climbed through everything from scree to breakable crust in weather from cold and calm to nuclear heat. #8000m climbing isn't easy, and a lot of folks that come here thinking otherwise either need a teaspoon of cement (Rx available by doctor @MonicaPiris) or get turned around. Today we were joined by @AlpenglowExpeditions owner @AdrianBallinger and rockstar climber, skier, adventurer and #🍕🍟 proponent @EmilyHarrington. We are doing a #RapidAscent, they are doing a Lightning Ascent. They just arrived but we're looking at summit windows on the same day... Check out #ChoOyuNoFilter. Psyched to have two more members on the #8000mSkiTeam ! 📷 From #ChoOyu Camp 1 a few nights ago #AdventureDoneRight #chooyu2016 (at Cho Oyu)
