Summit coming soon hopefully (May 15 2008)
Wind on the Lhotse face
Well having got the drudge of acclimatisation out of the way, the real action is now about to start.
The weather forecast is good, so the first group of Mark, Simon,Andre, Travis, Trumpy, Dan and Tanner are at the moment planning to leave base camp for their summit bid on Saturday. If the weather behaves this means a possible summit on Wednesday 21st May.Mike, Greg and Ray have some time in hand, so they are probably going to head down the valley for a few days, for some roast chicken! And probably beer too I expect...
I'm not sure about Ran and Kenton's plans, but they are resting at the moment at base camp.
So there we are, let the fun begin and may the weather gods be on our side.
