Hello Everyone,
Well, our plans have changed again as the weather has not been great the last couple of days to be able to helicopter to Mera peak. This is mountain climbing on the world’s highest peak and we have to be flexible. Our team has been incredibly patient and flexible throughout this entire expedition and it is much appreciated to have a team that is willing to roll with the changes we need to make. So tonight we will head up to Camp 1 on Everest to do our normal acclimatization rotation up to touching Camp 3 in the next several days. The hope is by now there will be less people moving through the icefall up to Camp 1. The plan will be to spend two nights at Camp 1, and 3 nights at Camp 2 before returning to Basecamp.
We are excited to be heading up tonight! Thanks for following along,
Ben Jones
