This is Edmond Hillary and I am about to start my journey up Mount Everest. I am at the bottom and it is about 33 degrees. It is snowing very lightly. Pretty warm at the bottom but I know it will get much colder and worse severe weather.All my gear is packed up and i am ready to start and hopefully succeed. I predict it will drop 35 degrees. This is just the beginning.
