Camp 1 Was a Success

Hi, this is Tracy. I wanted to give everyone a quick update. Chad wanted me to tell you that all 11 climbers on his team made it to camp 1.

Chad made a comment that it was in the top 5 hardest days of his life. After 2 snickers bars he passed out in his tent for 10 hours, but feels much better today. From the sound of it, every one is extremely taxed from yesterday’s climb.

Today they will do a 3 hour higher hike, then sleep again at camp 1 before heading out to camp 2 tomorrow. I have limited info coming through on the SAT phone so Chad will continue where he left off in 3-4 days once he gets back to base camp.
