Heading towards New Zealand Pass (Jason Edwards)
IMG Senior Guide, Dan Zokaites, called in a bit ago. He’s ready to finish the approach to BC today with the team. Leaving in about a half hour. There’s nothing easy about the approach to Carstensz but the team is hanging in there. Their plan is to take a shot at the summit the following day if weather/strength allows. If either is problematic, he does have one contingent day on the schedule to possibly use. So, if comms allow, we should hear from him again tomorrow afternoon, our time. We’re wishing the crew the best of luck.
