Morning of the 19th May Nepal Time

Good morning from Nepal! The team are already up and at it having at the base of the Lhotse Face having left Camp 2 nice and early. They have 4-5 hours of climbing ahead of them to reach Camp 3. From Camp 3 they will sleep and climb on oxygen. Their plan is to move to the South Col tomorrow.

The guides have been reporting that everyone is feeling good and moving strongly. They are well positioned for a summit on the 21st with the weather forecast holding strong right through until the 27th May!

We are really excited for the team, they’ve worked so hard for this moment and the days ahead. Wishing them the best of luck!
