Everest 2020. Alex Txicon back to EBC
18.02.2020:
We're writing to report we have uploaded a sort video on an audio file we received today from Everest BC. It's a radio conversation between Sergio Perez in BC and Alex Txikon from Camp 2, detailing the progress made today and the options he is taking into consideration on a critical moment. While the audio is unfortunately in Spanish only, the core of it explains that the climb to Camp 3 has proven highly risky, due to stones constantly falling from Lhotse's SO face. Alex is currently trying to find a suitable itinerary to avoid the most exposed sections, so today they have moved about 1km to the left of the normal route, crossed the bergschrund by a different pass and reached nearly 7,000m.
