Martin writes... Elias, our
guide, warned us that day two was going to be a long day's trek to our
overnight hut at 4200m. Setting off around 8am, we continued the
upward motion stopping for morning tea and lunch before eventually
arriving at Shipman's Camp / Hut.
This was my first mountain
trek so I had no idea how altitude would affect me. Needless to say,
altitude and I do not go together.

was not my first high mountain trek, I did know how altitude would affect
me, but for some reason I was still there. We do not go together either!
