IMG Update: Climbers Resting in BC; Camp 2 Route Solid

Most of the IMG Everest team members have now cycled back down to BC after their first acclimatization rotation to Camps 1 and 2. The Icefall has had several collapses during the last couple days, requiring the icefall doctors to rebuild the route in several places. Above the top of the icefall, the route is good to Camp 1 and 2, with a few ladders. We have now wanded this section of the route to C2 to be easy to follow in case of a snowstorm. Up at Camp 2 we now have a third big tent set up and about a dozen smaller sleeping tents, making for a secure and hospitable advance base camp.[More at IMG]
