Ang Jangbu reports that the weather is looking better now, with the jet stream remaining just to the north of the mountain.  Hopefully the wind will die down some more over the next few days.   IMG guide Max Bunce and the remaining team members headed back up to Camp 1 today. Their plan is to go to C2 tomorrow, C3 the next, and take a shot at the summit on October 1. We’ll keep you posted!
