Hello everyone,

Great news from the various teams in the Himalaya.

The IFMGA Sherpa Guided Team & Our Lobuche Team summited Lobuche in great weather this morning with everyone who set off for the summit achieving their goal and returning to base camp safely.

They had nice, stable weather for climbing and by all reports a really enjoyable climb. They will take a rest day tomorrow at Lobuche Base Camp before heading up to Everest Base Camp the following day.

Meanwhile, our Western & International Guide Team led by Casey Grom, our Cholatse Team (Guided by Jeremiah Phelps) and a number of our private clients including Fahad (Guided by Ossie) and Mark W have moved up to High Camp and will head out for the summit in the early hours of tomorrow. They will return to Base Camp tomorrow afternoon, enjoy a rest day on the 15th and move to Everest Base Camp the following day.

Our Trekking Team led by Josh McDowell are ahead of them all having moved up to Gorak Shep. They’ll reach their goal tomorrow, being the first of the CTSS team to arrive at Everest Base Camp where they’ll spend 2 full nights.

A big Happy Birthday to Wayne Morris for tomorrow, with special well-wishes sent by his family and relayed over the satellite phone.

I’ll continue to keep you updated,

Cheers
Caroline
