Mt. Everest 2005: To Climb Everest For A Cure: Will Rob get 1, will Apa get 15?

CopyrightŠEverestnews.com

Update:  May 30: This is a update from the staff at EverestNews.com, not a team update: Chuck Huss and Dan Smith are headed home. Rob Chang and John Gray continue on with a strong Sherpas team headed by the Everest legend Apa Sherpa as Expedition Sirdar. Apa is the world record holder of the most summits of Everest with 14.

Update: Friday, May 27: Rob called in his dispatch today. He said that yesterday they climbed all the way from base camp to Camp 2 in one shot. They are all in good spirits but pretty tired after such a huge effort, so they are taking a rest day today. From here, they plan to move on to Camp 3 on Saturday the 28th.
