(6/10) I couldn& #39;t have done any of it without the support of the entire @XtremeEverest team, in particular the leader @mike_grocott and this guy Dawa Tenzing Sherpa who carried 5 of the 6 Oxygen bottles we had that day.
(7/10) None of us could have done it without the support of our amazing sherpas
(8/10) and of course special mention for Spud who came all the way to the top!
(9/10) The Nepalese say that:
"your summit is at base camp"
and of course when your at the top, you are actually only half way there.
It& #39;s a long way down.
Can you see our tents at camp IV in this pic?
