Day 9... still going up?

So on a mountain at the elevation that our guys are at,, weather is either your friend.... or not. But either way it certainly will determine your day and course. So we left off with the plan of our guys heading up to 14,200 today, pending,, yes weather. They were calling for snow last night and into today with high winds. However, things were to calm down later this afternoon and into tomorrow.
So that was the plan and what we are going to continue with until we hear from the guys again.
If they are at 14,200 today, tomorrow they will return back to 13,500 and retrieve the rest of their gear that they cached on Saturday and then return back up to 14,200.
The weather forecast for the next few days is good for tomorrow and more snow for Tuesday...
Please keep the prayers coming for both physical and mental strength.
This week is going to be the turning point for the trip, as they are reaching the upper elevations and getting ever so close to the prize! It's going to be a very difficult week with a lot of acclimatization and heavy climbing in deep snow. Its going to be a very exciting week!! Keep checking back, keep praying, and don't forget everyone visiting the blog is more than welcome to leave a prayer, an encouraging word or any kind of comments you wish. While they cant see the blog now, they will see it when they return and your love and support will be greatly appreciated. 
Just an fyi,, we have had over 3000 views of our blog... 21 of them in the UK and 3 in Germany! Woohooo, we are International! How cool is that! Thank you so much to everyone for your support of our guys and their hard work and dedication to this expedition.

Here is a photo of another group that was at 14000 on Friday.. this is their camp...


You can see on the updated map,, they have come a long long way in a very short time!!
