THE BOYS ARE BACK - WELL DONE AND CONGRATULATIONS

Ian Arnold, Kieron Dunk, and Ray Wilson Taken at 9.15am (Nepal local time) on sturday 15th Oct. after successfully summitint the 20,300 ft Mount Imja Tse.
The 13 hour assent day started at 1.30am in the morning. Climbing by the light of headtorches, 5 hours scrambling got us to the snowfields where we put on climbing gear and roped up together for the 2 hour crossing of the glacier snowfields. A final couple of hours climbing an ice wall and along the ridgeway that lead to the summit saw us there. Just a few glourious minutes on top then the descent back to base camp and some rest began.
A further 3 days to walk out of the mountains followed to the airstrip that got us back to Kathmandu for 2 days R&R before retuning to Hilton on the 22nd.
Many thanks to all who offered support and made donations to the charities. No final total yet but I am very confident that the target funds and be reached. Time for more sleep!
