Hello great outdoors.com this is Dave Hahn at Everest Base camp with the IMG Everest trip. Still going well, we had one of the climbing team members make it to Camp II today, and 24 of our Sherpa team went all the way from base camp up to cap II made a big carry and put up our dining and cooking tent up at Camp II, up over 21,000 feet, so we are well established. Down here at Base Camp today it's a little bit on the cold side today. In fact the Sherpas reported they were cold all the way up the Western Cwm and back down, which is rare, normally it's pretty hot there where the sun reflects around, but today was a little of cool with big winds up above it looks like but not too bad down here. I'm still recuperating and hoping to have use of my legs again in a couple of day.
