## Caption

From jenpeedom : "View from Camp 2 on Everest 24,750 ft.  This was one of my favourite photos from the 2006 Everest season. I had just arrived to camp after a long slog up the north ridge. I’ve never been happier to collapse into a tent. It’s views like these that make all the pain worth it. In the distance, you can see Cho Oyo, the 6th highest mountain in the world. I climbed it the previous year. The two figures are Sherpas." Jennifer Peedom is an experienced climber, and has worked as a high altitude director on several expeditions including Discovery Channel’s six-part series EVEREST: BEYOND THE LIMIT. She has developed a strong friendship with Sherpa people over many years of working in the Himalayas since 2004, and these connections were key to the access granted in the making of #Sherpa. She's taking over our Instagram today in honor of the documentary, airing tomorrow at 9/8c as part of #ElevationWeekend on #Discovery!
