Terry called in the team’s report tonight. It sounds like the team has spent much of the last 48 hours digging out their camp, and reading and relaxing. While the team is relatively comfortable in camp, they are anxious to continue to their ascent. Fingers crossed for clearing weather!
Looking west/southwest from the 11,200′ camp
Here is a view of the basin that makes up the 11,200′ camp. The huge buttress of rock and ice above is the West Buttress, around the right side of which the team must pass to get to the 14,200′ camp.
Here’s Terry:
Hey, Team Fubar! We are now doing our official Happy Dance here in sunny Sarasota, hoping to send some good weather there so you can keep on climbin’! Warm hugs and wishes for a little less snow and a lot more sun!
The patient man will always succeed! The weather will be on your side. Bit different here in Wexford…so hot we had to come inside. Enjoy the time there.

Hi Team Fubar. The photos are fantastic . Great to see what your present camp looks like and to get some perspective on where you hope to go next. Lovely to hear your voice Terry. We miss you and really look forward to seeing you soon. Stay safe and warm and we’ll try and send some of the great weather we are having here over your way so you can move up to next camp
