In this week's episode, Kenton continues his climb up Laila Peak in Pakistan, providing real-time updates as he and the team move up the mountain from Basecamp, and then all the way back to Islamabad.
He describes ice towers, snow slopes, glaciers and rock formations. He explains the challenging terrain, and shares his thoughts and feelings both on the way up and on the way back down.
All expeditions need space for reflection - this one perhaps more than most. A night sleeping under the stars helped Kenton to do this, as well as the ever-present Pakistani hospitality.
If you are yearning for the mountains, this episode is for you!
