La neige se suit et se ressemble !
Il a neigé toute la journée au camp de base, l'équipe s'est levée avec la neige et s'est couchée avec la neige ! D'après les prévisions données par Nima à Katmandou, il y aurait encore trois jours de mauvais temps et ensuite...
Le moine Dorje Lama Sherpa est venu comme prévu pour la cérémonie de la puja. Le rituel s'est effectué sous la neige près d'un cairn où étaient dressés les drapeaux de prière (les fameux lung ta, ce qui signifie les chevaux du vent) puis il s'est poursuivi sous la tente mess, c'est ici qu'eut lieu le jeté de poignées de riz (on se serait cru dans un mariage, commente Franck).Ensuite Les Sherpas Passang et Lhakpa ont préparé les sachets individuels de vivre d'altitude et préparé aussi les écheveaux de corde fixe. Deux porteurs sont descendus dans un village (à deux jours de marche ) chercher des légumes frais. Sinon, activité principale de la journée : jouer au rami !
Patience, patience...
