The expedition has already began the up and down process of acclimatization. They had a rest day at base camp yesterday, and today they are making a carry of food and common gear to Camp 1, so they will cross the 5000m frontier. Then they will go down again (to the luxury of the dining tents and the fine cooking of base camp manager Susy). Tomorrow they will move to Camp 1 to stay there and face the next stage of the climb. They will have a high Chistmas!
There goes a picture of the 5000 m range, from a previous trip.
I will write more when they call me. Regards!
