AAI lead guide Chad Cochran called in to report on the progress of Team 2.
Team 2 was able to put in their cache on Monday (5/23), above the fixed lines. The weather was finally cooperating and allowed them to make their way above the fixed lines and acclimatize some while putting in their cache. They had a relaxing evening after a productive day, and headed to bed early.
Team 2 woke up to their coldest day yet, about -10 to -15 degrees fahrenheit. They had a great breakfast yesterday (5/24) before venturing out and checking out the views provided by the clearing weather. They could see some teams moving across the lower glacier. Team 2 took some inventory and reorganized their gear and got prepared for the potential to move further up the mountain as soon as the weather provides them the opportunity.
Team 2 got to watch as Team 3 arrived at Camp 3 around dinner time. The two teams are currently camp neighbors, and were able to enjoy each other's company for the evening.
Team 2 is looking forward to the weather hopefully clearing up for Wednesday (5/25), so they can attempt to make their way closer to the summit!
