K2/Chogori Winter 2003

Monika Rogozinska reporter from Rzeczpospolita, and long time EverestNews.com contributor, called us via sat phone today 1/9/03)!

It was so nice to hear her. She is very excited to be covering her third winter 8000 meter expedition. She says is it very cold   -30 at night but the weather is good! She says it is very windy for the climbers as they start up the ridge.

Much more from Monika in the days ahead.... Below are several photos from Monika on the way to K2!
