Ciao Mountain Zone, here is Simone Moro from Everest Base Camp. It is the 9th of May and at this moment here in the afternoon time it is snowing again. Anyway, tomorrow me and Denis, we will start from the Base Camp to going up, up high. Even if, as you read in my last message, we lost the third camp and all the equipment for the summit.

We arranged some extra equipment and tomorrow we will be going up, and we want to establish again for the second time the third camp, sleeping there, and after go high in the South Col. And when we reach South Col, we will see how we feel and we will make a decision. Anyway, we will stay in contact with the Quokka Expedition, the Mountain Zone/Quokka Expedition, here in Base Camp, and I will send the update from us on the mountain. Bye-bye.

Simone Moro, MountainZone.com Correspondent
