Big day tomorrow! Wes and the team are in high camp. An euphoric Wes called a minute ago, to say they are THE ONLY ONES THERE (unusual); and that the weather is awesome, as good as the team attitude. Bad weather is over (at least today), and they will try the summit tomorrow. I attach a pic of how it is going to be tomorrow (from last season). High Camp, or White Rocks, is at almost 6000m (19600ft), so they have an almost 1000 meter gain ahead, to reach the 22.841ft summit. This is the highest point in the WEstern Hemisphere! I will post the news tomorrow.
