Eco Everest Expedition 2009

At the South Summit

May 21 2009, 04:05 am

Just got a radio call from Thukten Dorje that Yuri, Nima Kanchha, and Him are now at the south summit and looking at the lights coming up from the balcony. Apa and the others are amongst the line of headlights moving up. I am hoping to hear from them in the next hour or two.

Unlike Yuri and his crew, they have been unable to pass the Indian NIM team who are also on their way to the top today.
