Lead guide Paul Ivaska called in. Team 4 is currently at Camp 3 waiting for a weather window to get their cache in at the 16,000ft ridge. Once they get that in they will be prepared to make the push for high camp. They ran into Team 3 on their way down, everyone seemed to be doing well and in high spirits. At this point they are playing the waiting game, trying to hold out for a moment of good weather.
