Hey MountainZone listeners, watchers, this is Eric Larson, Alpine Ascents 11, that's right we do not have a name yet. They're indecisive up here. But everybody's doing really well. We had a, we moved up to 14,200' camp today, and it took us about 5 hours and everybody did pretty well. Tomorrow we're going to go back to 13,5 and pick up the rest of our food and fuel, and then practice on the fixed line. And we'll be watching the weather and hopefully have a summit attempt here within 5 days.

"...we'll be watching the weather and hopefully have a summit attempt here within 5 days..."

So, let me pass the phone to Charles:

Hi, this is Charles. I just wanted to say hi to my boys, Jacob and Taylor and Jan, Happy Anniversary, sorry I can't be there. And I want to thank all my sponsors who helped my get here, and I hope to talk to you again soon. Bye.

This is Eric again. Just want to say thanks to everyone for watching us and giving us support and want to say hi to all our families and friends. We'll get back to you tomorrow, thanks a lot and bye.
