K2: Rest day in Skardu

Today was a leisurely rest day in Skardu after the two-day brutal bus ride. Many team members are taking it easy and trying to deal with stomach/GI issues; this is very common and all should be well in the next few days. I spent the afternoon catching up on emails and re-packing my gear.

Tomorrow we head to town of Askole also known as “the end of the road”. It’s an 8-hour ride in some souped up and re-inforced 4×4 Jeeps due to the lack of road and pavement. It should be an interesting day. #K22015 #MadisonMountaineering
