Silvio Mondinelli: Nanga Parbat 2005

Dear EverestNews.com, Gnaro arrived at Nanga Parbat BC yesterday together with 4 spanish climbers member of Carlos Pauner's team.

He will share his climbing permit with "Al Filo de lo Imposible" team and probably tomorrow 25th June he will start to go up till the CI first where he will spend the night and the day after reaching CII.

It seems that the weather is becoming good and the temperature going up. The BC now is nearly cleaned of snow but the mountain still white. He said that the trekking is the best he has never done and he is very enthusiastic about the lots of marmot that running all around the BC.

At the moment the way is already fixed till CII.

I'll enclosed a picture of the BC that he send to me today.

I will keep inform You about the progress. Ciao, Idel
