First Morning in Tibet

I slept for whole twelve hours. That is hard to believe for me as it was perhaps the first time in 25 years..! Simply perfect. Right in the morning I did the saturation test to all of us which shows the ability of organism to accept oxygen - only to learn that mine was the lowest. Jan and Jiri had both around 80 but I showed only the value of 70. So I started to drink even more liquids. After lunch we decided for some acclimatization. Based on my morning test I chose only 200 height meters for myself while the guys made 300, all measured reliably by our Suunto wristops (I’m using X6 HR, Jan X9i & Vector and Jiri also X9i). It's been a beautiful day and all of us feel very well after this rather small track. So until the evening we will be only resting and drinking a lot of tea.

A move over to the BC (Base Camp) by a jeep is awaiting us tomorrow. Over there all of our stuff will be repacked and loaded onto the yaks. The other day we will walk up to the ABC (Advanced Base Camp) which we plan to record in the GPS equipped X9i and show you later on. All of this means that I won't be posting messages for the following few days since it won't be possible.

Have a great day,
