Base Camp tomorrow

zontarEverest 2009

Just a quick post to let you know that we’re arriving in BC tomorrow (4/8). Our baggage is a couple of days behind us due to bad flying weather, so I won’t be able to send anything else for a few days. We’ve had snow and thunder and lightning the past two afternoons. I had chicken corden bleu for dinner last night, not bad for 5000 meters! And I’m in an internet cafe at 5200 meters sending this-quite remarkable.

Many people on the trail, and many Well Known Climbers around. We make the transition to tents tomorrow, which might be nice as the lodge bedrooms are really cold!

More in a few days.
