C2

A beautiful day. The sun burned. A total calm, not a slightest blow of a wind. Thus we decided to continue to the C2 in lighter wear that was more appropriate for the summiting. I can't help mentioning another beautiful and difficult part on the way up, again made of pure ice. In such weather it becomes a pure adrenaline for a climber. So we had it with Jan. It was snowing again when we were coming to the C2. I recalled Shisha Pangma where the forecast promised nice weather but in the end there was up to 1m of fresh snow. We started to perceive this climb like that. Luckily, there was only 40cm of fresh snow in the end. When we ducked into our sleeping bags a snow storm started to rage around us and it ended only in the midnight. We were at 7100 meters.
