		Ward had reached a high point of about 7,600m on the Lhotse Face, before his legs buckled "in the peculiarly jelly-like fashion of a drunkard's walk", and, though he returned to almost the same height in much better shape, during the final push he was on duty in the cwm as doctor.

		But to see the look in their eyes from such a close call was a sobering moment for all of us, and a reminder that we need to make every judgement about when and where we go with the greatest caution.
		And hopefully we’ll be looking up at Lhotse Face baking in the sun, perhaps some more slough running, general getting in a better stable condition for us to begin travelling on it later this week.

		The Lhotse's a 3/4-season item, which in our book means it should be suitable for year round mountain walking below the snowline and crampon use when needed.
		A pair of size 43 Lhotses weighs in at 1632 grammes compared to 1972 grammes for a pair of the class benchmark Scarpa SLs and almost exactly the same as Scarpa's fabric Super Treks.
		Comfort is excellent straight out of the box and performance is good on anything short of day-long, technical cramponing, when you might be better of with a fully-stiffened boot.

	Middle Lhotse
		Any separate ascents up to this summit are practically excluded because of the steep walls and very crossed relief and it is possible to summit it only climbing up to Lhotse Main or Lhotse Shar before and then make a traverse of a very crossed ridge with a length about 1000 meters.
		In 1994 the team from Switzerland tried to make a traverse to Lhotse East but climbed the Lhotse Main summit on 9:10 a.m.had to refuse next climbing because of awful state of the route and wild froze.
		The Russian team (part of it is now participate in the autumn expedition) also tried to climb this last Himalayan citadel on spring 1997 but the very bad weather in Everest region did not allow to do it.
