Mountaineering Life :(

Some disappointing news from 28,000 feet.  We just got word that the guys had to turn around at the South Summit due to the jet stream.  They knew it would be a small window and took a chance but in this case, it was not in the cards.  They are heartbroken as is the support crew at home.  We aren't sure if there will be another shot, let's hope there is.  They are back at Camp 4 and I'm assuming heading down further to a more stable place.  Everyone is safe as far as we know.  We've only received a short text.  Thanks for all of your support and prayers.  In the end, the most important thing is that everyone return home safely.

  1. Prayers and comfort are being sent their way. Glad they are safe and hope they can rest up as they contemplate a 2nd attempt. We are cheering for you guys and impressed by your strength to get this far.
