Yesterday the team spent the day training to make sure their skills are second nature, followed by a yummy pizza dinner care of Guide/Chef Tomi Ceppi and Head Chef Kumar in the kitchen! Today was mostly a rest day before the crew set off uphill again to Camp 1 on their rotation.

They will sleep at Camp 1 and then (if weather allows) they plan to touch Camp 2 tomorrow before dropping back to Base Camp the following day. If the weather doesn’t play ball, they have planned and prepped to spend a second night at Camp 1 and will look for another weather window on the 15th to tag Camp 2. Either way they’ll get some great acclimatization in, which is the name of the game this early in the season. Team is doing really well.

Meanwhile private climber Ott & Guide Tomi have already completed their first rotation, where they spent 2x nights at Camp 1 and tagged Camp 2. They took a rest day today back at Base Camp and are planning to start their second rotation tomorrow. You can see some of their pictures below.

Don and Guide Kami hiked to Crampon Point yesterday and will finally be reunited with his lost luggage with the fresh food drop that the chopper is bringing in today. His plan is to rest today and then move up to Camp 2 tomorrow and spend 2x nights of acclimatization at Camp 1.

Cheers
CTSS Team
