Day 12

Today was a planned rest day for the team.  They received the weather report from the National Weather Service and the forecast is calling for snow through the weekend.  So they are now in a holding pattern.  Hopefully there will be a break in the weather and they can make a summit bid. Dave reports that they talked to Stony via the hand held radio.  He spent the day, walking around camp, reading, writing in his journal, reinforcing the snow walls around his tent, and rebuilding their cook tent that had collapsed from the overnight snow. He feels good and his spirits are high.  The team wants to thank everyone for the messages they are leaving on the blog site.

Glad to hear all is well with Stony. I hope the weather clears very soon on the upper mountain so the rest of you guys can be on your way up. Thanks for keeping your blog updated--it's great to be able to follow your trek! I'll stay tuned for sure.

Good luck on your summit attempt. Have Stony look up a friend of mine who is at 14,000 with the RMI group - her name is Deborah. Hope Stony is doing well also.
