IMG Autumn Cho Oyu Team Dispatch One August 22, 2003: The Cho Oyu team has now departed the USA and is enroute to Kathmandu. They will procure their Tibet visas on the 25th and will fly to Lhasa on the 26th.
After a couple days of acclimatizing as tourists in Lhasa, the climbers travel overland to Tingri, where they meet the Sherpas, before going on to Base Camp. All the equipment, oxygen, and food will go to Tibet by truck, accompanied by the Sherpas, via the border town of Zhangmu. International Mountain Guides
EverestNews.com coverage will include dispatches from the IMG Cho Oyu Expedition along with exclusive dispatches from Nancy Norris as she warms up for Everest 2004, when she hopes to attempt to become the oldest American woman (at age 60!)to summit Everest.
