Summit bid set for tomorrow (podcast)...
9-21-05 -- Here's the latest podcast from John.
From Kasha... Hello from camp 3 at 24,700 feet. We seem to have entered a bit of a monsoon cycle so we raced up a day earlier than planned with hopes of beating a bigger storm. Afternoons bring in wind followed by warm snow. Looks like we have some major trail breaking ahead of us. I use we lightly as Hilaree and Willie are moving faster than I am. We are still deciding what the pay back will be. Weather permitting we plan to leave camp 3 around 3 am, summitting by early mid day and descending to camp two by skis. We will check in tommorrow.
Thanks, Kasha and the team.
