They Summited!!

Ryan called this morning from High Camp. It is a beautiful day, but everyone is pretty tired from the move to 17,200. They were debating wether they could go to the summit or wait until tommorow and hope for another nice day. We'll update this evening if we hear anything new.

-------UPDATE------

They Summited!!! The whole group was able to make it to the summit today! We just got a breif message that everyone is doing great, and they will start down tommorow. Congratulations to the whole team.
