Sitting in Base Camp watching the snow fall, we have had 48hrs of it now, and it has stopped any progress on the hill. All at Camp's 1 and Intermediate have been forced to sit out the weather. If it stays this way then all will return to Base camp tomorrow.

Stu managed to get up to camp 1 with some needed supplies with Tenzing Sherpa, and returned to camp looking like the proverbial Snowman!

We have managed an impromptu Birthday party for Dave Tait at base camp, with Happy birthday being sung over the radio form the two top camps.
