Morning Update...

Durny called this morning from Camp 2 at 11,000 ft. They moved up yesterday, and everyone did great. They slept in a bit this morning, and will go down the trail and get their cache from a few day's ago this afternoon. It's a very short day, and is really an active rest/acclimitization day. The overall strategy is to keep moving up the mountain averaging around 1000ft/day so that everyone acclimates well to the new altitudes. They'll spend 3 nights at 11,000 ft before moving up to the next camp at 14,200 ft etc.
