Alpine
Ascents International Cho-Oyu Cybercast, Tibet

7:56pm, Cho-Oyu Base Camp, Tibet
Hi,
this is Todd from Base Camp at Cho-Oyu, we moved
into base camp today. It's been three days since
our cybercast. We wanted to do one last
night, and just before we got on the telephone, we
heard about the terrible tragedy and terrorism in
America. It was devastating to the
expedition. We regrouped for the night and
we talked a lot about what to do and we decided to
go up to base camp, and we're all here, we're
going to be here for the next two or three days.
We just want everyone to know how much we're
thinking about you and how much we love America,
and that our biggest concern now is not
necessarily climbing Cho-Oyu, but in the welfare
of our country.
We
are going to stay here for the next couple
of days, everyone is good. We would
welcome all friends and family of people
on the expedition, to feel free to call Alpine
Ascents (206)-378-1927, and just leave
a message to say that you're okay, if
you're close friends or family of anyone
on our team, and you should know if they
are on this team. And we'll give a
call in and our office will give us the
names and if everyone is okay. Our
thoughts are with you guys, and we hope
and pray that life gets back to normal
soon, and we're able to continue where our
great country left off. That's all
for now, bye bye.
