Our team of Lakpa, Margaret, Warren, Chris and Peter reached Camp 2 in good time today. Everyone is feeling strong and healthy, and they are now enjoying the comforts of Camp 2 on the Western cwn plateau. They will spend tomorrow night also at Camp 2 to further facilitate their acclimatisation.
The Climbing for a Cause trekkers are spending their 2nd night at base camp this evening. Today they had a tour of some of the ice fall and visited our friends at the Himalayan Rescue Association tent. It will be a quiet camp again when they begin their trek back to Lukla tomorrow
