SummitClimb Mt. Everest 2005 Tibet: Everest Summiter Ryan Waters LIVE from Mt Everest: Success: 8 on the Summit for SUMMITCLIMB!

Update: Ryan and all of this team is down and get ready to head home after successfully summiting the mountain...

Update: This is Ryan Waters calling for the SummitClimb team on the North Side of Tibet Everest Expedition.  Just calling quickly to update everyone, friends and families, to let everyone know that all of our members and staff are safely down to Advance Base Camp.  We had a good night's sleep last night and everyone's feeling good, strong, a little bumps and bruises here and there and very tired and exhausted, but everyone is in good health. 

Today Bob Guthrie and Neal Jing will walk down to Base Camp.   Steve Poulsen is already at Base Camp, he left yesterday.  That leaves Magnus and Fredrick who are going to stay today for a rest day here and then they're going to walk down to Base Camp tomorrow.  I have stayed up here with the staff for a few days while we wait on yaks to arrive and then once they get here we will load up the yaks and come down, probably in two to three days hopefully.  So that's the deal.  Everyone's safe and feeling good and we will check in as soon as we all get down to Base Camp.  Thanks for following along.  This is Ryan checking out from Advance Base Camp, goodbye
