EXPEDITION DIARY

 

Main team - DIARY UPDATE FOR:

DAY 40 - SATURDAY 01 MAY 2004

In anticipation of a fine weather window we are expecting, Colin, Dick, Ven and Ben moved up to Camp 1 today with a view to moving to the high camp tomorrow. If the anticipated fine weather materialises, they will work flat out to get the route in to Camp 2. Tomorrow, Dave B, Uisdean, Chris and Aleck will go to Camp 1 in order to support and if necessary replace the guys pushing out the route. The rest of us are resting at Base Camp and Val built a new "field shower" today!

The weather today seems to have changed, it has been cold and windy but, thankfully, no snow!
