Everest feedback

I realise that I haven't managed to get round to giving a post expedition update but it's been pretty hectic since I returned from Everest. The B&B has been pretty chocker and I've been climbing with clients quite a bit - as well as trying to work through my 2 month in tray which is full of Everest and Ama Dablam enquiries.

Anyway I have just received some feedback from one of the guy on my trip, Jon Gupta, that I just wanted to share.

"I have climbed with Tim, guided for Tim, and been led by Tim. We have trekked together, shared a tent together and regularly I bounce ideas of him. As a climber his understanding and patience is invaluable to learning new skills and understanding the most efficient, yet safest way, to perform a task. Whilst guiding for him, he allows me to stretch myself and use my experience to lead and make decisions with his clients. As a leader, he has a profound understand of the needs of his team and leads by example and is inspiring.
His humour is really great, and there is always a smile to be had - his team is always the one having a great time. His card skills are sharp (watch out), and his Connect 4 prowess flawless.
An expedition with Tim is more than just a mountain, it ticks every box - and for most, this also includes summiting."
The other thing is that I'd like to thank everyone who has chatted with me over the past few weeks who had been following the expedition either through the local news and / or online. It's great that folk have followed and connected with the story and taken an interest in our progress. It means a lot.

Anyway if you are interested in the next Everest expedition then please get in touch because there are a lot of people interested but there's only limited availability. There are nearly 30 on the mailing list but the group will undoubtedly be restricted to around 7 or 8. It would be shame to have been following the updates, be interested in the style and approach that I use and find out that you couldn't come along because the trip was oversubscribed.

Over to you ...
