Camp 1

Camp 1 in two weeks. Although the place is safe against direct avalanches, the air wave from an avalanche can break ordinary tents or blow away the ones that are not securely fastened to the ground.

Camp 1

On the route to camp 2. It is necessary to start very early because of frequent small avalanches. There were several big crevasses on the way that required rope.
