Via radio from Camp 2 Hey this is Seth checking-in from Advanced Basecamp (ABC) on Mt Everest with our summit folks. The whole team is here just settling in for dinner. Everyone is doing great. (Cheers in background) Tomorrow we plan on tackling the first part of the Lhotse face and spending the night at Camp 3. The weather forecast has been in and out but the last one shows some improvement. So we will plan to leave tomorrow morning in the dark, after one night at Camp 3 we will move up to the South Col and then finally the summit. On a final note we want to wish our Basecamp Manager, Mark Tucker, a Happy Birthday! (Cheers in the background). Happy Birthday Tuck! That is it from Advanced Basecamp.
