26th Jun 11 at 16:06Stuart Remensnyder: FTA's ChannelHi, this is Chris calling from K2/Broad Peak with the Field Touring Alpine exdetipion. Just a quick update here. Lakpa Sherpa and Sophie came down high above camp 3 this morning. They were unable to summit because of high winds and but you know they're gonna try it another day they're all fine so they're gonna, we're gonna give it another shot here next weather window hopefully. In other news we have Mike, Andrei, Kare, Jeff and John sleeping at camp 1. Today they're gonna be going up to camp 2 tomorrow and maybe sleeping there if not they're gonna come back down and then the next day all the rest of the group excluding myself are going up. We got Wimm, Daniello, Rob, Kim and see I think that's about it sorry if I'd forgotten anyone. Anyways I'm gonna go up the following day all the way up to Camp 2 and then we're gonna go; me and another group will fix ropes to Camp 3, hopefully opening the way up for the other climbers to move up. I will be spending a couple days there, so I may not have an update for a few days, but don't worry about us, we're all fine and we're having a great time, I'll check in as soon as I can.

On Inca Trail to Machu Picchu the government reiotalguns say that porters should not carry more than 25kg. But in practice, most of them carry at least 35kg (though almost never more than 45kg).The frustrating thing is, that if you want to do Inca Trail, you need to do it with an organized group and they will carry lots of useless stuff for you, e.g. a 4-person tent for each 2 people, tables, chairs, plates, cutlery and so on and so forth.In our group there were 13 tourists, 2 guides, 1 cook (who was also a porter), 16 regular porters, plus 4 extra porters that carried personal belongings of lazy/out-of-shape tourists. So we calculated that for the two of us (me and my husband) there were 3 porters (each carrying at least 25kg) on the trail, even though we carried all our personal stuff (clothes, sleeping bags and pads, water, and so on). If we would carry the ESSENTIAL things that the porters carried for us (like food, cooking equipment and a tent), it would only add 6-7kg of weight to our backpacks (instead of 3 25) The only good thing about this system is that it creates jobs. Also, porters on Inca Trail are reasonably well paid around $20-40/day (depending on the company). Though I still think they should be paid at least triple of that.
