Dispatch 30 Part 2: Big Winds on the Lhotse Face

Hey this is Dave again at Camp II, and I was giving you the wrap up on where folks are. Jim moved up to Camp I and the Swiss German Austrian trio moved up to Advance Base Camp, and I told you we got four team members and three Sherpas up at Camp III tonight on the Lhotse face. And my next goal is to tackle the Lhotse Face. I climbed to the base of it, the bergschrund today and I had only intended to go there. I was kind of glad I wasn't going higher, it was blowing pretty good on it. But I'm going to wait and see as to when I get on the face. I've got no fear about climbing up it, but climbing down it could be kind of tough, my knee is still healing up and I don't want to overdo it. But it's fun to be up here at Camp II, lot's going on, lots of teams coming through. Two teams that tried today didn't make it up, they'll probably try tomorrow. This is getting to be the busy place on the mountain. Talk to you again soon.
