Originally there were 11 members but due to lack of funds it was reduced to 7. Now\u00a0three Kazakh climbers: Ildar Gabbassov, Ahat Smailov and Amaner Temirbaev will join the team. While they are not acclimatized, they are fresh legs that hopefully can help get the camps set.<\/p>\n<p>However, more high winds that were not forecasted kept the teams working hard today.\u00a0One group got to C2 and another left gear 5,700-meters after giving up on reaching C1 and descended to ABC.
