19th November
Summit Succes for the team!
Clive has emailed in to say they are now back down safe at Chhukhung. Matt, Thomas & Charlie reached the summit. Rob, Martin and Clive got to just over 5900m and then decided to head back down. Richard wasn’t feeling too good, so decided to stay at base camp. The team will now make their way back down the Khumbu valley to Lukla.
16th November
Tomorrow the team will trek to Island Peak base camp with a plan to move up to high camp on Sunday and summit on Monday.
15th November
The team are at Dingboche for a second night . They made their acclimatisation walk up the ridge behind the village to 5000m today.
Other than Richard suffering from a sore throat all is going well. They are aiming for summit day on Monday so an easier day tomorrow as they head up to Chhukhung.
12th November
The team are now in Namche Bazaar and acclimatising well. The weather for the flight to Lukla was causing some delay, so the team decided to opt for a helicopter to avoid any further delays.
