Summits upon Island Peak (Imja Tse) 6186m as good as everybody down protected as good as sound!

Chris has called in an audio dispatch as good as also called in to a bureau to let us know which a organisation had topped out in tall winds as good as which everybody was behind during BC lazy up after a long limit day. He sounded tired as good as happy as a single should after a good push up a 6000m peak in a Himalaya. I

Island Peak Summiteers upon a 27th Oct, 2009:
Chris Szymiec
Christine Li
Ian Blessley
Oscar Raap
Sam Tyler
Siddhi "Mama" Tamang

Eric was not feeling super strong leaving from tall stay as good as decided to abort a limit push as good as save his energy for Ama Dablam. We applaud his wise preference as good as it bodes good for a protected stand upon Ama Dablam! He returned to rest up during tall stay accompanied by Mama (Siddhi) who afterwards turned about as good as caught a limit organisation as good as assimilated them to a top!

Mama continues to infer an incredibly strong as good as fast climber as good as an up as good as coming sherpa guide. I have good known Mama for 4 years it has been good to watch his growth as a guide. He began as a cook partner & tall altitude porter as good as has been working upon his rock climbing skills every year. He has now guided upon Island Peak for a third time with FTA as good as worked upon a Ama Dablam as good as Cho Oyu trips as good last year. Looking brazen to seeing him stick upon a Ama Dablam organisation for his first limit bid in support of Chris as good as Pemba.

They will suffer an easy walk down to Dingboche tomorrow likely stopping for cups of prohibited lemon during a tea houses in Chukhung as good as an evening of prohibited soups as good as popcorn in Dingboche. The route behind to Chukhung is flattering disproportionate but from there upon down it is a gently descending route with vast views of a large Nuptse/Lhotse wall. Anyone who has seen a wall up close from Island Peak or Chukung Ri has seen a single of a largest reliefs imaginable. Rising some-more than 7000ft as good as less than a mile divided it is tough to take in all during once!

There is a good image of a wall during http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nuptse-fromChukhungRi.jpg

Tsering, Ian, Oscar, Hong as good as Christine will stick upon a organisation behind to Dingboche tomorrow as good as afterwards conduct off for a Everest BC trek. We'll design to hear from them every 3-4 days as they make their way to Lobuche, Kala Pattar as good as afterwards over a Cho la to Gokyo. It is a single of a good treks upon a world as good as you look brazen to hearing how most they enjoyed themselves!

Chris, Sam, Erik, as good as Mama will stand behind up to Ama Dablam BC to stick upon Pemba as good as Emilia as good as proceed a Ama Dablam stand after a few days rest. If all goes good you design them to be making a limit bid upon or about a 5th of October.

An sparkling start to a FTA autumn deteriorate in nepal with lots of movement still to come!

have posted some images next from last year as good as you look brazen to lots some-more images when a deteriorate is over. (Be sure to check out a art studio section or all a images from past trips!)
