Ac – the summit – 6962m

Written By: sean on February 20, 2012 17 Comments

They made it!  Sean phoned last night which was about 4pm their time to say they were on the summit.  The satellite phone reception wasn’t great so couldn’t get much detail except that they sounded elated. 

They would have returned to Colera to spend the night and are on their way down to base camp today – and heading home…

Thanks Rose, for the use of your pics.
