Sunset on
Shishapangma from Base Camp |
Hi EverestNews.com, All members are safe back in Kathmandu
enjoying the city life again. Eating pizza's, drinking beer etc. gaining
their strength back! We had a unique experience being alone on a 8000m
peak. I hope we have more luck next time with a summit, this autumn the
conditions are a little bad everywhere in the Himalaya. I think Shishapangma
is a really special mountain and summit day looks very interesting, one day
................
After a couple of days all members go back home to their
normal life again.
I hope we will climb together again.
Cheers, Arnold Coster

weather, high altitude double boot for extreme conditions The Olympus
Mons is the perfect choice for 8000-meter peaks. This super lightweight
double boot has a PE thermal insulating inner boot that is coupled with
a thermo-reflective outer boot with an integrated gaiter. We used a
super insulating lightweight PE outsole to keep the weight down and the
TPU midsole is excellent for crampon compatibility and stability on
steep terrain. WEIGHT: 39.86 oz • 1130 g LAST: Olympus Mons
