Teams are leaving the South Col for the first wave of summit pushes tonight, Tuesday, May 10, 2022. Everest summit record holder Kami Rita Sherpa was evacuated from C2 with snow blindness. The high winds seemed to have calmed allowing these first summit attempts.<\/p>\r\n

There appear to be excellent summit conditions, i.e. winds under 30 mph\/50 kph through the weekend at least. The summit temperatures are hovering around 0F\/-17C which is extremely warm. This is excellent news for those climbing without Os as they will move slower and be colder than those on Os.<\/p>\r\n

Mountain Professionals<\/a>, under the leadership of Ryan Waters, are ready to go a bit later than the usual 9:00 pm departure:<\/p>\r\n
