The team at Barafu Camp (Phunuru)
Phunuru Sherpa reports that the team made it up to Barafu Camp (about 15,000 ft) in good form this morning. After enjoying a hearty hot lunch, the team retired to the tents for the afternoon to rest and hydrate in preparation for the summit bid. They will have a supper tonight, then get a few hours of sleep before getting up about 11pm, with a departure time planned for about midnight. With any luck, that should put them on the summit shortly after sunrise! Fingers crossed for them, we’ll keep you posted!
