IMG Update: Summit Bids in Full Swing
May 16, 2009 – Summit bids are in full swing now, with lots of teams heading up. Ed, Scott, Danuru and Samduk headed up to Camp 2 this morning along with Jane, Li Hui, Esther, Kami, Panuru, and Jamling. Mike, Paul, Louis, Chris, and Dawes are at C2 taking a rest day today. Tomorrow morning we are sending ten sherpas up to Camp 2 to support the summit bids. The Lhotse team of Greg, Dave, Philippe, Chhewang and Gyalgen are also at C2. Today we had four sherpas carry to Lhotse Camp 4 and set up a tent there. Yesterday the Kazak team fixed 600m above the camp. We’ll be sending up additional sherpas to work on fixing the route above Lhotse Camp 4 in the next day or two. [More at IMG]
