Looking up from C1
Heard from Mike at 6 pm, Seattle time, Thursday. They made a carry today in ‘somewhat improving’ weather. They couldn’t make it to C2 today but did cache part way up. Back at C1 for the night with a now greatly improving forecast. Team is quite strong, capable and raring to go. Mountaineering is always about making decisions and the team will be looking closely at weather tomorrow. They may well head up. Let’s see what the weather brings. Either way, they’re in a good position with a healthy team.
