Everest Team INSPI(RED) 22 - Summit Dispatch
After much weather watching last night we decided to depart for our summit attempt at 10:30 PM. We slowly made our way up, moving among about 70 or 80 other climbers. The number of people as well as dry, rocky conditions made for slow walking - almost causing us to turn around at various points. After all of that at 8:10 AM on May 22 Nepal date and time, Everest Team INSPI(RED) and 2 Sherpa Tsering Dorjee and Fura Kancha stood together on top of the world at 29,035 ft. With a combination of perseverance and luck we are now safely back at Camp IV in the South Col. We will check in from Base Camp in a few days and further describe our adventure with photos. Thank you everyone for all of your support and good thoughts. It's now time for us to get some much needed sleep.
This one's for you - Bono, Bobby, Susan, Tamsin, Ron, Collin, Kate and the rest of the amazing (RED) Team!
