The team touched down in Base Camp on Wednesday and are doing great.

We chose to employ a conservative acclimatization schedule to allow climbers’ bodies time to adjust so the team have spent the last few days settling in, running through gear and strategy etc and doing a training day to refresh their skills before they head out onto the Manaslu Glacier and begin their climb in earnest.

Today they are doing their Puja Ceremony to pray for a safe expedition as it is an auspicious day and tomorrow they will climb to camp 1 which is about 5,700m before returning again to Base Camp as part of their acclimatization.

Cheers
CTSS Team
