Sunset on
Shishapangma from Base Camp |
Dispatch Five: Hello EverestNews.com. This is Arnold
Coster, the leader of the SummitClimb Shishapangma Expedition 2006. Right now
I'm calling from Camp 1, 6,200 meters. Today we climbed up to Camp 1 from the
Depot Camp. It was a very nice day, only at the end of the day was it a little
windy. Herve and me took like an hour to put our tent up, and after 30 minutes
Maya arrived in Camp 1.
Right now we're fine, we're cooking, getting warm, getting ready to sleep
again, and tomorrow we want climb middleways to Camp 2 and descend again to
ABC. Norbert and Diana are having their rest day today in ABC, and probably we
will see them tomorrow coming up in Depot Camp. So, we're all doing fine, we
hope you are fine, and we'll speak to you again. Bye bye.
