Moro Everest/Cho Oyu 2002 Expedition |

Hello
Everybody, I am calling from the Chinese Base Camp
of Cho-Oyu. We are at the same height of the Mont
Blanc and we are waiting to depart for advanced base
camp. Around me there are hills made of sand and
rocks where I and my team members walk around to
acclimatize. There are about 10 expeditions at base
camp, it is kind of crowded. Tomorrow we will climb
towards ABC at 5600 meters. We plan to however sleep
at base camp. Since we came here with the car, our
acclimatizing stage is relatively complex. We
proceed slowly and gaining very little progress,
thinking that it is better to spend an extra day
dedicated to acclimatization than a week with a
headache waiting at ABC.
Talk to you soon,
Simone
