Mongolia/Mt. Khuiten Team Takes Rest Day

July 20, 2018

All is well on Mount Khuiten.  Charlotte and the team had a great training day a couple days ago, and used a contingency day today. Contingency days are used for many purposes, weather being on of the biggest.  I sent Charlotte the weather forecast and noticed a little rain yesterday afternoon and made the decision to allow the team to acclimatize a little more and avoid the climb to High Camp in the rain.

Tomorrow’s forecast is more favorable, and the Team is feeling great after a rest day at Base Camp.  A few climbers took a trek to the Mongolia/Russian border to stretch their legs.  The team is doing great and now everyone is looking forward to head up hill to High Camp in the morning!
