Mountain climbing sleeping quarters,fuk me!

[Andre]

First time I viewed the thread then there was nothing at all in the first post, now there's a vertical column of the red x's.

When I was sleeping above 3,000m I found that's when it was the coldest, and used to sleep with my bottle of drinking water for the following day (water was boiled to kill bacteria the night before) between my legs. Also, would pee in a plastic bottle to avoid the night trips to the loo, and I was peeing 5-6 times a night because of the altitude.

Important thing was to remember what was in the bottle, and not try to take a drink of water at night!

Which mountain have you been up mate?

Which mountain have you been up mate?

Didn't actually ascend a mountain, just did a 21-day trek around Manaslu, and went over the Larkya La pass, so highest we went was 5200m. Only one day actually on snow, but the nights above 3k are really cold.
