Heading on up

Duncan phoned into say that the weather on Everest seems to be finally cooperating - the winds are light.
Friends may be interested to know that recently qualified NZMGA aspirant guide Tshering Bhote and his team are encamped at 8300m and plan to make a summit attempt on 29 May.
As planned, Duncan's team spent the night of the 28th and a rest day at the North Col, re-building their level of acclimatisation and preparing to go higher. They are planning to head up on the 29th to 7900, after another night at 7100m, and are still aiming for a sumit push on 30 May.
