Day 2

Acclimatization hike to Irikchat ridge 3600 m, then we returned to camp 2700 m. We started at 10 am. I had a terrible headache around 3200 m and then it was extremely slow like I was drained from energy. We left some gas and food at the bivouacs. Going down was easy but headache came back when I arrived at my tent. I felt so terribly tired and went into my sleeping bag. I can't remember feeling like this last time. Maybe I just repressed it or either I was young and strong back then. I only had half of my dinner but then woke up at 4 am and felt really good. Now I was hungry and thirsty. Rain fell on the canvas.

Beautiful morning at my tent.

Up the hill.

Meeting the snow.

The trail leads to our goal.

Resting.

Last uphill.
