World
Summit's Everest 2001 North Ridge Expedition
Dispatch:
Hello
All from the glorious North Side of Everest!
We'
descended to Base Camp on 21 April. A rest day at BC
for Ian, Neil and Roc. Last night we celebrated
Roc's 56th Birthday in style - complete with a baked
cake covered in chocolate icing! The cook is
definitely well - he cooked the fantastic cake, has
recovered his strength and wants to go back to ABC. We
are persuading him to stay at BC. Above we left Purna
and Kath resting at ABC. Purna is planning to move
some more equipment onto the North Col and to push out
a high camp during our absence to Camp 2 on the ridge.
Our morale is good, we are enjoying the thick air of
BC. Ian
