i was waiting up there for hours, a couple meteres from the summit, waiting for him to show, almost depleting my own 02. He was moving pretty slow since he was making an unassisted ascent. it was a very triumphant moment, but quite fleeting since we both had to race down toward camp IV before the weather set in(we would have been caught in the dark without provisions) and we never would have survived the night. the sherpas welcomed us with open arms and a mug of piping hot, fresh Amavida coffee. all 'because it's there'
this is so romantic!!!
