As yesterday, I assume there may be other teams including Asian Trekking, Seven Summits Treks, small Nepal guides companies and a few independents. \u00a0There are still more teams that are targeting the weekend including the three sub teams of IMG totaling over 20 members plus the ones I mentioned may be going up tonight.\u00a0Summit Climb on the Nepal side is holding off until 22\/23 May – try late this year.<\/p>\n

The member was taken to the Nepal border and flown to Kathmandu where I’m told he is out of danger. Looks like Summit Climb<\/a> on the Tibet side is finally going up. They were last reported at C3.<\/p>\n 7 Summits Club<\/a>\u00a0are hoping for continued success for their last three teams.\u00a0Furtenbach<\/a> should be sending their “flash” team running higher – they pre-acclimatized and are on a 4 week home to home program.\u00a0 Similar to the south side, I assume there are Chinese teams, small Chinese and Nepali guide companies plus Seven Summits Treks.<\/p>\n More as I get it.<\/p>\n Climb On!
