Adventure Extreme Everest 2001 Expedition

Dispatch Three: April 23th, 2001: 

Despite some unpleasant weather associated with the passage of a cold front, the Adventure Extreme team continue to make good progress with further carries to the North Col. Terry Stubbs and Stuart Simpson have returned to the mountain leaving Dave Peel and Brian Staines at BC recovering from minor chest infections, all other team members and Sherpa staff are well. Due to a deal made with Eric Simonson's expedition, the team has access to fixed rope already in place up to 8200 meters and plan to maintain momentum by establishing camp 2 at 7800 meters within the next few days. The expedition is receiving highly accurate weather forecasts from the UK based Met Guru, Alan Pettitt which is helping their forward planning considerably.
