IMG Update: First Summit Team Heading for the South Col
May 10, 2009 – Climbers Shea, Golden, Merle, Phinjo, and Mingma Tenzing decided to take a shot at the summit, despite the less than ideal forecast. They left Camp 2 at 1:30 this morning (May 10) and are currently (8:30am) above the Yellow Band on the way to Camp 4. Weather is holding, so far so good. Their plan is to rest this afternoon at the Col and try for the top tonight. We’ll keep you posted on their progress. [More at IMG]
