THE PORTERS ARE SUPER HUMAN

Dear Friends,

I cant fault the super-human abilities of my expedition guides and porters. Their spirit was magnificent. I was amazed at the loads they had to carry. Varied objects such as kit bags, tents, tables and chairs, water containers and food and what else for their own personal comfort stretches my imagination. I commend the porters very highly.

The guides who have summited over 100 times can take the rarified air without notice. I could just climb 25 mts without needing to halt to catch my breath.

The cook, waiter and porters never flagged. It was their triumph too.

Best Wishes

Andy
