    Just heard from team leader Rob Marshall. He and Drew Ackles had arrived at Camp 3 (Rob is carrying the GPS tracker) making the ascent up the Lhotse Face in less than four hours.

  • Into Thin Air: What Went Wrong in 1996? May 14, 2013
    We are still waiting for words on when the team will depart Base Camp for the summit push. There is a tropical cyclone in the Bay of Bengal that could push some moisture into the Himalaya, and fresh snow could cause a delay of a day or two. Meanwhile, in our ongoing effort to highlight […]
