Monday
8 April: Guy Cotter arrived at BC on Sat 6 April
along with John Taske and Andy Maluish who had been
away trekking in the Gokyo region independently of
the main group. They spent the weekend at BC getting
gear sorted and helped the Sherpas finish the tent
platforms. After spending their last night on the
trek at a lodge in the village of Gorak Shep
yesterday, the rest of the expedition members
arrived at Base Camp today. Guy emailed to say that
'all were happy to finally be there and they're
amped to be heading up onto the hill. Wednesday
should be our Puja day and we'll be moving up after
that for a look. The route through the icefall has
been finished and the first team got through
yesterday.'
