After the acclimatization night, during which most people can't sleep and feel the effects of altitude in earnest for the first time, the team will descend all the way to base camp. There they will eat, sleep, and wait for a forecast window of clear weather to begin moving up the mountain again. They'll go to their advance base camp at Camp II, and if the weather forecast remains clear, they will attempt a summit bid.
