Island Peak Summit- ETA

The team should be topping out in about 3 to 4 hours from now. That would be around 23:00hrs (PDT).

The weather is perfect for a summit push. Clear skies, wind around  8 to 10 km/hr. Temperatures hovering at -12c with a wind chill factor around -18c. 

I see a scant of snow in the forecast for tonight so camp will be all cozy when they return. 

Ang Karsung prepped tea and lunch for them and took  it up on the route for them yesterday so they're being well nourished. 

They're busy right now prepping the celebration dinner for when everyone is back at camp and lunch to take up again for their trip down. The climbers can easily carry for themselves but our staff are keeners to get out of camp and join in the fun. 

Stay tuned!
