Close.
And that’s why they call them ‘forecasts’ and not ‘guarantees’. The team took a serious shot yesterday but the weather worsened and closed them down. Great effort but it was not to be.
The team returned to high camp and is now in a waiting pattern until they see that ‘weather window’ which will give them another shot at the summit. Everyone’s well. A bit bummed but ready to rally for the next attempt.
Stay tuned.
