It?s quite crazy to be lined up with all these people at this altitude. But one person was missing; my sherpa! He was somewhere behind, fighting to warm his cold fingers. And the best, he mixed me up with a Korean climber!
Until the second step it wasn?t very fluid, at each harder step we had to stop and let the queue go. Only a few slower climbers can make such a long line. Like at the supermarket, a Friday afternoon before a long weekend! Our leader Sherpa Dawa found it too dangerous to be so many people up there, once it might make a big catastrophe, I hope not. But we had a nice cake without the cherry!
As the sun raised the peaks around looked so small from 8 600 meters, Himalaya showed itself from the best!
All in all, we have to review our relation with Mother Goddess of the Universe, or maybe our Mother!
