084_Baltoro Blisters  [84 of 235]


Almost all porters suffer nasty blisters on feet and shoulders. At the end of the day they ask for treatment for their blisters, injuries, head-aches, eyes UV-irritated etc. They all want treatment first, they all try to draw the doctors attention first, by calling, pulling my arm or shoulder etc. I lose my temper as they struggle for our attention, I shout at them. It's a shame. I carry only half their load, with state-of-the-art gear.
