Hi
everybody this is Todd, we're at Base Camp still.
It's our third night here at 16,100 feet.
Everybody's doing very very well. Tomorrow
morning we'll head up to our intermediate camp on
the way to Advanced Base Camp, around 18,500.
All of our yaks arrived today, we unpacked and
have sorted everything to bring all of our loads
up. We're still thinking a lot about what is
going on in America, and hoping that everyone is
safe and pulling their lives back together.
We did an acclimatization hike today. It's
been a beautiful sunny day, although everyday up
towards the mountain, the mountain has been
obscured by clouds, almost ever since we've come.
It's been snowing up high but hopefully by the
time we get up, the mountain will be in good shape
and ready for us to go to the summit.
Everyone
gives their best to everyone out there, and
thank you for all of the messages that were left
for us. We'll be in touch soon. Bye
bye. Todd
Burleson
