Ang Jangbu reports from Everest Base Camp that our Teams are enjoying perfect weather for climbing and training! Down at Lobuche Peak we had 100% Team 1 success this morning with all climbers and guides standing on top, enjoying a fantastic view of Everest. They said that there is now only room for three people at a time to stand on the summit, as apparently a piece of the summit snow blob has fallen off!
Back up on Everest, our first big load carrying push was successful with a large team of Sherpas reaching Camp 2 and descending safely to Base Camp. Well done! Team Two had a training day on the ice near EBC and IMG leader Kevin Kayl says the team did well working out the bugs with their rigging and ice climbing before they head down to Lobuche Peak tomorrow.
All’s well at Everest!
