It’s beautiful weather up high again today with our Sherpa team at the South Col reporting nil wind.

Departing Camp 3 and climbing up to Camp 4 (the South Col) today are; John K & guide Walter H, Meghan B and guide Naren, Mark w and Margaret K with guide Pega, Clayton and guide Passang and guide Tomi to get into position for a summit bid leaving tonight (local time).

At Camp 2 – Jessica H and guide Kami are taking a rest day along with mother daughter duo Jane & Gabby with their guide Tendi. They’ll all move up to Camp 3 tomorrow with their eyes on the summit after that.

Leaving Base Camp tomorrow morning after a well deserved rest are Manal and her guide Anup. They’ll head out in the early hours through the icefall up to Camp 1 and then onward from there over the coming days.

This is an exciting time and for our climbers and a somewhat anxious one for those of us at home. It’s important and can be helpful to remember that no news is good news, it just means the climbers are focusing on their climb.

Cheers
CTSS Team.
