Manaslu Expedition: RMI Guide Alex Barber Checks in

September 29, 2014

Last time I posted I was waiting out bad weather at base camp. Prior to that, I stayed in camp 3 (22,300ft) for four and a half days. However, a good enough window for a no oxygen ascent never appeared. On the 27th I dropped back down to Base camp and took a single day's rest. Today, the 29th, I went from base camp to Camp 3 in a single 8 hour push. I'm positioned again to take advantage of some "reasonably" stable weather. Tomorrow the 30th I hope to make Camp 4 and "fingers crossed" summit the 1st of October. RMI Guide Alex Barber
