Climbing Team - 18th May

Five members of the Caudwell Xtreme Everest Climbing Team have moved from Camp Two to Camp Three. They are Dan Martin, Patrick Doyle, Andre Vercueil, Maryam Khosravi, and Vijay Ahuja. They have moved ahead of the rest of the team so that they can set up the Rolex Institute Laboratory on the South Col. The rest of the team have remained at the Ely Lilly laboratory at Camp Two.

Trek K arrived at Everest Base Camp today. They arrived earlier in the day than any other trek so far. They will begin testing in the BOC laboratory tomorrow, and the following day, and then head back down to Kathmandu on Monday.
