Hi everyone this is Ben calling in from the Manaslu team, at Camp 1, almost 20,000 ft with Dan and Jim! We are on our second rotation up the mountain to acclimatize, we’ll spend one night here at camp 1 then head up to camp 2 tomorrow. Its been raining here everyday, while we were in base camp it was snowing quite a bit up here, I think about 2 to 3 feet of snow. We had some shoveling to do before we got into camp here but we’re all in, we’ve just had dinner and getting ready for bed. Everybody’s doing well, the snow has calmed down a little bit for now, expecting more snow tomorrow then a couple days of reprieve without too much precipitation. We’ll see! We’re doing well and feeling good! I will touch base again tomorrow after we get up to camp 2, thanks for following along!
