Moving to 11,000

Just got off the phone with lead guide Bill, and the team is already settled in at 11,000 camp today.  They are all doing great and moving right along.   They plan to take a rest/acclimitization day tomorrow and then move on up to the next camp at 14,000 ft.

Eric, looks beautiful and cold!! Getting up at 1 am?? What are you, a masochist? Enjoy every minute and lean on the strength of God during your adventure. You're in our prayers.
