A Good Day

The team was able to carry a load of food and fuel up to the ridge at 16,400 feet today.  They get into some of the most entertaining climbing of the whole trip in this section, ascending fixed lines to the ridge, and then up thru rock and ice.   

Gerry has a bit of a cough that he can't seem to kick, and sat out today's activities.   We hope he'll feel better and be able to continue up the mountain with the team.

Please tell Gerry that the Banks Family hopes he is feeling better and able to continue the climb. We are praying for you!

We're watching and waiting and hoping and praying that the weather allows this trip to the top.
Mike hopes Caj's hair isn't too much of a problem in the high wind.
