Day 10: Reserve day for contingency in case of bad weather
There is no such guarantee that we can get quite a favorable weather on our planned day for the summit, so this day is used as a contingency in case if we are unable to summit the Lobuche due to bad weather condition or some other reasons. If weather gets exceptionally unfavorable we wisely have to postpone the program reach summit. Sometimes somebody in the group may get some problems in acclimatizing well enough to make the ascent; the day can be used in that condition too. If the trip goes smoothly, we do not need this spare day.
