27th April

Good morning from the Khumbu! We hope you are moving into a great weekend.

A quick update from Everest Base Camp; yesterday our 1:1 Climber Susan and Guide Pega, Camp 3 Climber Andrea and guide Robert as well as our Personal Sherpa Climbers Aga, Darragh and Lee moved up to Camp 1.  After their first night in the Western CWM they will tag Camp 2 today before retreating back to Camp 1 for a second night. Most will then drop back to Everest Base Camp. Andrea & Robert however will stay up for a long rotation all the way through to the goal of climbing to Camp 3.

Our Private 1:1 Climbers came down yesterday, and had a restful night in Everest Base Camp last night. They will take a few days recovery now to allow their bodies to play catch up and set a new point of acclimatization before their next rotation.

Our Western Guided Team and 40 Day Speed Ascenders have been training hard and keeping their skills current and will continue with that plan for the next few days before heading back uphill.

Jesse our 30 Day Speed Climber and guide Tomi are doing great, acclimatizing well and will do more training tomorrow outside Everest Base Camp before their long rotation.

Everyone has been wonderful company and great team players and are having fun together, as they move closer to their goals.

We hope you have a great weekend!

Cheers,
CTSS Team
