May 15, 2009 – Our Sherpa Trek team led by IMG guide Chros Meder and Phu Tashi arrived at BC yesterday afternoon and everyone is doing fine. Today they took a hike to the base of the Icefall and visited around BC. Tomorrow they head back to the land of warmth and green. This morning Mike, Paul, Louis, Dasona, Chris and Pemba Dorge, and Dawes and Mingma Chhirring climbed successfully to C2. The weather forecast continues to look good for the next week or so and we have more climbers going up tomorrow and the next few days too. Keep your fingers crossed! [More at IMG]
