The immensity of the project that is Everest…thousands of people, thousands of man hours. It#039;s a team effort that too often gets lost in the singular nature of accomplishment. The idea of quot;Iquot; is a lost concept if even the most basic level of honesty is infused. Himalayan climbing is a team sport…even if you are climbing quot;unsupportedquot;. Today, five Sherpa members of the team (all graduates of the @khumbuclimbingcenter in Phortse) moved up from BC with thousands of pounds of gear and food. Here, another member of the larger Everest team, a Tibetan yak driver, loads a yak. @adrianballinger and I have been adjusting slowly in BC, but are feeling good. Check out Facebook for 360 video from life here and EverestNoFilter on Snap for the daily update. More FB live coming on @Nat geo as well.
