Manaslu Team acclimatizes at Camp 1

 

Hello Everyone,

Today we spent most of the day resting at Camp 1 but then went for a couple hour hike through a little icefall section heading towards camp 2.  This is great for our acclimatization and will help us sleep much better tonight.  Tomorrow morning we will head up to Camp 2 at 20,700ft.  The weather has been pretty good up here and looking forward to more days of drier weather.  The team is doing great!
