Simone Moro Everest/Cho Oyu 2002 Expedition

 

Hello my friends, only this morning it has stopped snowing and the wind has finally calmed down, after smashing the tents, breaking some. It has snowed for 30 straight hours, but what scared us the most was the noise of thundering and lightning, typical of the monsoon season. Try to figure out this weather... Now it is sunny and very hot. The temperature changed from -25C to +30C!!! The snow that fell is being rapidly melting here at BC. I will rest 3-4 days, then I will try for the summit with Nicolini and Mezzanotte. They will climb to C2 to then descend here at ABC. The others will climb to C1 tomorrow, then they will climb to C2 the next day to then come back to ABC. I will send some pictures tomorrow.

Ciao , Simone Moro
