Expedition Leader Jonathan Schrock checked in to let us know that the Team is now at Camp 3, resting on oxygen for the night. The weather has cleared and is looking good for the next few days. The plan for the Team is to be up and climbing by 6am heading for the Yellow Band, Geneva Spur, and on to the South Col. This will provide them with plenty of time to rest, eat, and hydrate during the afternoon, and put them in position to summit on the 23rd.
Ang Jangbu also reports that 4 IMG Sherpas have climbed up to the South Col to make preparations for the Team to move in. The advanced team will have tents set up and water ready when the Team arrives.
Moving into position on Mount Everest!
