We got a call from Senior Guide, Karma Rita Sherpa, overnight to let us know the team is feeling great and ready to move up tomorrow. The team had a great Puja and the weather is now looking very good. I like when a Puja clears up the skies for climbing! The team will depart Base Camp after breakfast and climb to Camp 1 (17,552’/5350m) to spend the night. They will then touch Camp 2 (20, 13’/6100m) the following morning before returning to Base Camp.
All is well on Putha Hiunchuli!
