Today, due to deteriorating weather, the team came to a consensus that it was best to turn around on the way to Camp 4 (High Camp, 17,300ft). We gave it a good shot but it just wasn’t in the cards this season. Tomorrow we will have an easy morning before we come together to descend off the mountain. Team 2, over and out.
