Yesterday the team made the move to Camp 2 (18,000ft) also known as Chopper Camp. The team will look to carry to Camp 3 either today or tomorrow. Hopefully they will squeeze in a rest day before moving up to Camp 3, which is the last stop before going to the summit! The skies have been clear and beautiful with winds sustaining around 25 – 30mph. It’s getting cold up there (high is 12 degrees) so they are chowing down on some hot food and drink. Looking forward to hearing from them about their movement today.
