- Chinese Base Camp with Cho Oyu (Ang Jangbu Sherpa)
All is well with the Cho Oyu Trekking and Climbing Team in Tibet. Dallas and the team had a great hike up to 16,075 feet outside the town of Tingri. The team was rewarded with a few brief views of Mount Everest between the high clouds.
Everyone is packing up and will be ready to head out after breakfast for Base Camp. With the new road, the team should arrive to Base Camp for brunch. This team is doing a great job acclimatizing. It can be hard to take it slow at the beginning of the trip, but the payoff is huge! Taking it slow and staying healthy at the beginning of the trip puts “money in the bank†for later in the trip.
Up at Base Camp, Phunuru and our advance Sherpa team are making good progress moving gear towards ABC.
Nice work everybody!
