Team 2 had a great day trekking back to EBC after a successful climb of Lobuche Peak over the weekend.\u00c2\u00a0 The Team will now have a couple days of rest before doing some ladder training and preparation to head up on their Dry Run.\u00c2\u00a0 It is a great feeling to get the summit of Lobuche under their belt.\u00c2\u00a0 The additional acclimatization and training on Lobuche will help the team when it comes time to head up the Khumbu Icefall on their first rotation.<\/p>\n
