Well most of the team is now together in Pangboche with the exception of the “Two Riches” (father and son from US)

It was great to finally see Rob who has been trekking and has already been up to base camp. We are planning an acclimatisation trek to Ama Dablam base camp today, then onwards tomorrow to Pheriche and then Everest Base Camp on 10th April.

Despite a considerable breeze down the valley, so far the summit of Everest has been looking quite clear, as if it’s below the jet-stream, in the mornings. The general feeling is that it might be an early summit if the weather continues.
