A quick update today as more of the team reach their first objective, Lobuche East.

Our Western Guided Team moved up to High Camp ready to tackle the peak in coming days. They’re likely to continue to acclimastise tomorrow with a rest day and some briefings/light training before falling out in the wee hours of the next day for their summit bid, weather permitting. Those of you with loved ones on this team have probably been suffering with a bit of radio silence, but all is well, they’re just out of range, delighting in being unplugged and waking up to the most beautiful views in the world!

Our Private Guided Team is hot on their heels, setting off from Pheriche and arriving into Lobuche Base Camp today, they’ll take a rest tomorrow, with a light hike to High Camp, maybe waving hello to their compatriots in the Western Guided Team before doing some training and enjoying the excitement of breaking out their climbing gear. Just like the Western Guided team they may now be a little quieter as they go out of range so you can expect that you won’t hear from them for a good few days as they focus on their first ascent of the expedition.

Our Sherpa Guided Team moved up this morning from Debouche to Pheriche and will do their acclimatization hike tomorrow.

CTSS Teams moving strongly as we get higher into the Himalaya!
