CTSS Lead Guide Sasha Sak called in via Sat phone with an update. The team moved into Camp 2 at 18,100 feet this afternoon and are feeling great! The guides are staying on top of the weather and have a game plan put together for their summit strategy.
Tomorrow the team will carry to Camp 3 in the morning and descend back to Camp 2 by early afternoon to rest the remainder of the day. On the 9th the current plan is to move to Camp 3, with February 10th as the target summit day. Guides Sasha and Nanika will keep an eye on the weather and adjust if needed, but for now the 10th is the target!
Good luck to the team as they wrap up the hard work of moving into position and switch focus to the summit climb.
