What
is most interesting is the Russians Summits on the
18th. Was the weather really bad on the 18th? One
climber we interviewed last week said it was fine up
high on the 18th...
The
expedition left Kathmandu for Tibet to climb
the North side of Everest on 4/6/02.
The
Ural (Russian team) summited on the 16th and the 18th.
You might have notice Gavin Bate spoke of Alexei's
Summit and becoming good friends with him...Their
Summit on the 18th, would have been in what many
consider bad weather. Those Russians! More details to
follow later.
