Our barrels are packed and we?re ready to go?

On Monday we tested our last group, Trek M. We waved them off at the crack of dawn on Tuesday. The project has been a challenging and amazing experience for the group.
We have spent the last 48 hours packing up our laboratory and Paula has given Mac Mackenney a run for his money? if there is an Xtreme Everest 2 she will put in a tender for the logistics contract!
So tomorrow morning at 05:15 we will leave the Summit Hotel which has been our home for the last 2 months and fly to Lukla to begin our trek to Base Camp. If everything goes to schedule we are due to arrive on the 28th May (or is it the 29th Blanche?).
We would like to wish the Summit Team the very best of luck and look forward to celebrating with them at EBC!!
