Deep Roots - Day 11: Glacier skills training at Everest Base Camp

Day 11: Glacier skills training at Everest Base Camp

05/18/21 • 14 min

Deep Roots
I laugh at how many times I’ve had this realisation and how it’s yet to take its place as a permanent reality in my mind, despite the many hours and days spent experiencing it over the last 3 years; mountain living is hard.

Day 10: EBC to Pumori BC (5740m)

It started with one of the worst nights of sleep I have ever experienced. The sweats, nausea, headaches, constant vivid nightmares (mad shit about guides, sherpas, mountain life, permits and not getting kicked off the mountain), diarrhea, and lastly, Cheyne - Stokes breathing. This is basically where you stop breathing momentarily mid-sleep. A disconcerting way to wake yourself up.

A tough night on the mountain for Damian.

Day 12: Rest Day>Day 13: Enforced Rest Day

This morning is the first morning I’d venture to say I feel nearly “normal”. Definitely, I’m in a much better place than the last 3/4 mornings. Gone are all the momentary physical warning signs brought on by hastiness or overeagerness.

Another good sign I’m moving in the right direction.
