Gouter hut


Had breakfast at 07:00, My throat feels very dry, probably a smaller infection. Left some excessive things and scrambled up 650 m in 2 h. There was no major stonefall but I passed several memorials from earlier fatalities. Recently there were 2 persons killed on this section. Took a short break at the hut (3817 m) and continued to 4150 m for acclimatisation. The pic is from the way down - glacier looks good. Start for summit tomorrow at 03:30. :-)
