Every step was earned, every breath counted. This summit isn’t just a point on the map. It’s the result of teamwork, trust, and sheer dedication.
As Sir Edmund Hillary said, “It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.” Today, this team conquered both.
Here’s to the mountain, the team, and the journey ahead.”

“Dear Everest
We knew a week ago that no day was a good day to ascend and descend in a single day without the use of bottled oxygen because of the winds 💨 and temperatures 🥶that have been standardized all season. However, we looked for a last small window that never gave me confidence because of how unpredictable and short it seemed.
I left with the confidence to go step by step observing, advancing during the night camp after camp. As I passed camp 2 I began to feel the altitude and my pace slowed. As I climbed alone all night to camp 3 I decided to make the decision to go down, I had a feeling that the mountain would not receive us, a bad feeling. I had a bad feeling and that at any moment the threatening winds would settle down. It is hard to make the decision but you always have to know how to listen and therefore I feel happy. I went straight down all night until I reached the base camp with a heavy snowfall on the descent and when I turned around and saw the summit in the distance my premonition would be fulfilled with winds of 80km/h+ which are intolerable for someone without the use of artificial oxygen. There was never the perfect day and we have to accept it , luckily it is the mountain who decides , we are just visitors .
After 50 days in Nepal the south side closes its season. The summit is not the goal, but getting home in one piece is !
I leave with my heart full of so many wonderful people, so much time surrounded by giants and a Sherpa culture that I admire so much!
Thank you Everest for so much!”
