Eco Everest Expedition 2009

They are off!

May 20 2009, 10:15 pm

Just spoke to Thukten Dorje on the South col. The whole group, including Krushnaa, have decided to leave together in one wave. They have just set off from the South Col. Apa is leading the team he tells us that all are in superb condition.

Next Radio call is scheduled for when they reach the Balcony, 8500m.
