High Camp! 17,200 ft
They moved up to high camp today. It's one of the harder days of the trip and everybody did great. Jacob said it was one of the most beautiful days he's had on the ridge going up to camp. The views are pretty incredible up there. They had a welcoming party at camp, another of our teams was in camp and helped them get tents up and settled in. It can be a huge help to get a few tents up as most climbers get to high camp pretty exhausted. They'll plan to take an acclimitization/recovery day tomorrow, and then hope to get a chance to go to the summit!

KC,
ReplyDeleteYou're almost there!!! You can do this! Hope you are savoring the views and the experience.
With love always,

By the way, following the Tour de France is not the same without you
AB. You are brilliant. Well done. Lucy is lost in Bangkok and phoned to get me to remove the bar on the credit card. The bar sounded good but not so good re the credit card. Do you manage to get by without cash at the top base camp? Keep pushing and take lots of pictures. Sounds like the weather will be good.
