There really isn’t enough praise to heap on the wonderful locals that guide us safely up the mountain. They singlehandedly carry our bags, their own bags and all of the camping gear and never utter a word of complaint, in fact, they make it look easy. They don’t wear any fancy climbing gear, often jamming their hands into their pocket for warmth as we gain altitude. They keep a smile on their face the whole time, laughing and joking and generally keeping the rest of us going. They truly are incredible and I can say with total honesty… we would never have made it without them. If any of you decide to make this climb, any thermals or warm gloves/hats etc you may be able to leave behind when you leave will always be greatly appreciated and put to good use!
