Today we practiced more fixed line training in the lower Khumbu Icefall involving rappelling, ascending vertical ice, ladder crossings, etc. We sorted through our snack food in preparation for 5 days of climbing above base camp. We had some light snow in the afternoon, then clearing before sunset. Tomorrow we plan to go for a short hike in the Khumbu Icefall and then return to camp for another night here in base.
