Wow, the ESP is working well between us...just as I posted the blog update, my phone rang and it was Adrian. He called using Chris's satellite phone (the guide), and it was so good to hear his voice!
He said all is on track for their plans, with a summit attempt starting at 2am Thursday morning. The tents are set up and waiting for them at Island Peak Base Camp and there will be food for a week, allowing for multiple summit attempts if necessary.
He said that groups coming down at the moment have not been able to summit due to it being too windy at the top, however, the wind has been subsiding the last couple of days, so the boys' chances of summit success are looking good. Adrian did repeat how bitterly cold it was, obviously made worse by the wind chill.
I will update with any other news as I receive it....Cheers, Heather.
