Thank you for all the great videos it's truly a magical land, I love seeing all the little villages on the way to BC. I was in shock when you said there are about 1200 people there at base camp. I do hope everyone abides by the "pack it in pack it out" philosophy. Enjoy, be safe and I look forward to watching the next leg of yours and your amazing sherpa's trek.

Keep up the great work and these awesome vids brother! Just found your channel and I’m hooked. Love the transparency you bring to Everest and how you’re making it seem like with proper training and a goal in mind it’s possible, if you work hard enough towards the financial and endurance challenges that come with such a goal.

Absolutely love your videos man. Really raw and telling it how it is. I think you need to get yourself a GoPro though. Not quite sure how you're going to film on your phone when you really start climbing. Be safe!

@2:32 "Sender still clipped in, so if you fall, you're chillin'"
Only a young energetic person would say that. 🤣😂🤣
Thank you for explaining and showing so much!
Still not going to ever try this, but it is super fascinating!
Love your videos!

Must be tough to have to stick to camp when you can see the mountain in front of you. I'm sure you are pretty anxious to get going. Hopefully tomorrow goes well. Be safe, have fun.

[mariannemarlow]

Hope you're doing okay. I get worried when your updates don't appear!!

Please film the night sky/milky way from base camp!

It looks like fun but seems a bit technical.

Ryan, did they move Everest basecamp back further? Last season there was much controversy regarding the heaters in the large domes and urinating on glacier is rapidly increasing its melt (making the khumbu icefall even more perilous). The Government had said they were moving basecamp. Has this actually occurred? Thanks in advance if anyone answers this.

Looking forward to the one from Camp 4

Thanks for the effort in shooting and editing in this environment! How do you charge your equipment at EBC? Appears you are working on the one-handed technique for passing anchors. Are the locker biners screwed down between the anchors or just left unscrewed? I bet you are pumped to get above 6, 000m. Looking forward to the video of that climb, especially any technical challenges on that objective.

I recently had a course in rock climbing and they said they don't use figure 8 belays anymore, mostly for safety reasons, now it's so I'm curious why it's still used on everest.

Ryan, what is the best way to learn about the rope system? I struggled with this on mount rainier.
