C3 established, waiting for the summit push

Our plan for this climb up the mountain was to complete our acclimatization process and put ourselves in the position to have a try at the summit.  To do that, we wanted to sleep one night at 7000m and reach the next day around ...

With Pawel in C3-7000m on Kangch. Tiny litle tent, barely able to move inside, loads of condensation, soaking us wet. True masochistical.

Just arrived in C2 from BC.One umpleasant surprise among many: Sherpas from Seven Summit "borrowed" our stove for C3.At this altitude=crime.

Mountain conditions permitting we'll start for Camp 3-7100m the day after tomorrow. Luckily will then have our acclimatization completed.
