AAI lead guide Chad Cochran called in yesterday (5/17) on day 9 of their expedition.

The team woke up early to variable weather conditions and wind, but chose to pack-up camp and make their push further up the mountain. Team 2 successfully made it to Camp 3 (14,200ft)!

The team is feeling a little worked from the long haul and headwinds during the day, but everyone is still feeling really strong and excited about their progress and may take the next day to relax and recuperate. We're looking forward to hearing from Team 2 again, soon!

Feel free to leave comments for team member. When guides can call in we can relay them back to your climber.
