Happy New Year! Your relatives, friends, loved ones, etc, who are climbing with us, experienced a high New Year evening: they celebrated with a small but rather emotive party at almost 18.000ft (Camp II). Guide JAcob called from his sat phone yesterday. He said they were having a "snowy New Year", and that everyone was well and happy. Before that, they did a carry of gear and food to Camp III, which means they reached 6000m (19,685ft)! The group also decided to try the summit via the Normal route, and not the Polish Glacier. Jacob is confident that everyone will reach the summit. They will move to Camp III today, and might try the summit tomorrow or Sunday. I will let you know as they call me! The picture is Camp III, from a previous trip. Regards
