I don't remember as much as I would like to from this day but I do remember the hiking seeming so much harder than the day before. Up, up and up, it felt like forever. Scrambling with three points of contact more that I ever have hiking in my life. That morning felt like a novelty as it was our first time waking up on the mountain. Everything felt new. There was so much for our sense to explore: see, hear, smell, touch, taste. Saidi, one of our trip leaders, shared that every morning we would eat breakfast together, then briefly talk through the plan for the day and then try and start hiking around 8 or 8:30am. I remember most days we left camp at least by 9am at the latest. Every day got a little harder than the one before as we were tired from hiking all day, enduring whatever elements the weather and terrain had in store and the altitude. This day was no different.
