We received a very truncated post from Eli Potter, that did not provide any real information, so we’ll fill in the blanks about the Japan 8 8 Team.  They awoke yesterday (June 9)to very stormy conditions and chose to remain at Camp, rather than push up into the maelstrom.  We have not yet heard from them today, but other guides on the mountain have reported that it is still very stormy and snowy, so there is a good chance that they have taken a second day at the 7,800′ camp.
