\n\t\t\t\tIMG tents at Chinese Base Camp (notice the new power lines) (Phunuru Sherpa)\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>
\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nDallas and Phunuru checked in overnight from Tingri and Chinese Base Camp.\u00c2\u00a0 Both teams are working hard and enjoying the weather.\u00c2\u00a0 Phunuru and the Sherpa team have all of the tents up at Chinese Base Camp (16,000\u00e2\u20ac\u2122).\u00c2\u00a0 Down at Tingri, our climbers had a great acclimatization hike up a nearby hill.\u00c2\u00a0 The team climbed to 15,500 feet and caught another glimpse of Cho Oyu through the clouds.<\/p>\n
The team in Tingri has elected to take an additional acclimatization day before moving up.\u00c2\u00a0 This is money in the bank since there is no hurry to get up to Chinese Base Camp.\u00c2\u00a0 The area around Tingri is beautiful, so spending an extra day here just gives everybody a little extra time to look around and enjoy their new surroundings.\u00c2\u00a0 The team is healthy and strong, and we want to keep them that way.<\/p>\n
Phunuru has already hired 30 yaks for the trip to ABC, so he and the Sherpa team will be breaking down the gear into yak loads for the trip up to ABC in the next day or two.<\/p>\n
All is well in Tibet!<\/p>\n
