AAI lead guide Andy Stephen called in this morning (5/17) from Base Camp.
Team 3 flew in yesterday evening (5/16) with beautiful conditions and set-up at Base Camp. The team learned a few necessary skills and had a delicious dinner of pad tai.
The weather is a slightly socked in this morning, having had a little fresh snow overnight. The team will start the day with a hearty breakfast before learning additional skills.
The team is hopeful of moving up to Camp 1 (7,800ft) later today, as the conditions are looking great for that possibility.
Everyone on Team 3 is getting along great and having a good time. The team is looking forward to moving higher up the mountain later today!
