My g/f takes that long to get up, pack and climb to Heather Terrace.

Naismith's Rule would give an ascent time from Everest Base Camp to the summit of 7 1/2 hours!

Just over 22ft per minute. Quite good going really, I reckon.

In reply to Del: Personally I reckon the ministry must have cut back on overtime and hence the Sherpas don't want to waste a minute.
