Team Reviews Skills at Basecamp

Posted on April 24, 2026 | Cybercasts

Hello Everyone,

The last couple of days in Basecamp we have been reviewing our skills before heading down to Lobuche East for our first acclimatization climb above Basecamp. The team is looking good as you can see from the photos. Tomorrow we will pack up and shower up and maybe squeeze in a preliminary cornhole tournament before heading down to Lobuche village the day after tomorrow.

As you may have read the route through the icefall is still not finished but so far it is not really affecting our climb. Hopefully soon a safe route will be established and other teams can start climbing. For now we are still right on schedule and after a good week of rest in Basecamp we are ready to start climbing.

Thanks for following along,

Ben Jones
