The weather window has arrived, and our team on Manaslu is making moves toward the summit! Today, they are heading to Camp 1 and will continue to capitalize on the good weather. We will update our blog from the upper camps as we hear more from our Senior Guide, Tendi Sherpa.
Typically, once our teams are making the summit push, they will move to a new camp each day. This means we anticipate the team moving to Camp 2 tomorrow (Tuesday, September 24th), Camp 3 on Wednesday, Camp 4 on Thursday, and their summit bid on Friday, September 27th. After their summit bid, the team will return to Camp 2 for a night before returning to the comforts of Base Camp.
We wish the entire team the best of luck! Here we go!
