We arise to a cool and breezy dawn. Some lingering sprinkles fall throughout the morning as we pack our gear. Everything is folded, rolled, tied, and zipped. Today we move from Low to High Camp.
After a short visit to High Camp, we return to the comforts of Low Camp. It is an uneventful descent of about two hours duration. I pick my way through the boulder-strewn path and realize that the trekking poles are more valuable going downslope than they were going upslope.
