LISTEN:

GreatOutdoors, this is Dave at Mount Everest Base Camp, the IMG camp. Everything is going well, not a whole new to report today. We've got climbers at Camp I, a whole batch of our climbers went up to Camp I, and presently at Camp I tonight we have probably 18 or 20 western members and Sherpas. So a pretty good crowd there. And we've got a fair number of people at Camp II tonight as well, they are piling up up there, supposed to be a big move tomorrow of folks moving up to Camp II and even a few folks trying to go up on the Lhotse Face with Mike Haugen sand Casey Grom so we're hoping they do real well tomorrow The weather is staying pretty much the same, a little bit cloudy, a little chance of snow flurries but not much to give us trouble. And I'm hoping to do a carry up through the Icefall early tomorrow morning. Larry is still acclimatizing, still getting used to base camp altitude, so we are going to wait a little bit on him. But I'm hoping to do a carry and I'll let you know how that goes.
