AAI guide Aili Farquahr called in from High Camp (17,300ft) late last night/this morning.

Team 1 made a summit attempt yesterday but due to very windy conditions had to return to High Camp.

They are currently in a holding pattern but are looking to make a push for the summit in the next day or two.

Wish them luck and good weather! They are in a great spot and need a good weather window.
