8th August 2011 – International K2 Expedition to the North Pillar of K2
Brief Update 8th August 2011 :
After an exhausting ascent and a lot of fixing work, the K2 team spent two nights at around 8,000m, which was necessary due to the constant snowfall (about 30cm). They are currently trying to get back to Camp III and then to base camp, where they are planning to rest for a few days. We are expecting the next detailed newsletter by midweek.
Warm Regards
Gerlinde Ralf and the whole team
