Finally we’re at Camp 3 and we’re the first team to sleep the night here. It’s not exactly pleasant at 7200m on the Lhotse face, but we’re here! Everyone reached camp by 2pm (Margaret, Warren, Chris, Peter, Lakpa, Ang Kaji, Dendi and Pasang).
The views down the Western Cwn are stunning. We’ll climb back down to Camp 2 for breakfast and then head back to BC for lunch
