MORO AND URUBKO - CAMP 2

Nanga Parbat winter attempt

January 25, 2012

 

 
 
 
Just as the team anticipated, they really needed that 3 days of rest to re-energize and build up their physical and mental state. It’s really important to make the right decisions in this type of adventure.
 
They planned to reach camp 2 today and they have successfully made it there. Until Camp 1, they were accompanied by Matteo and two Pakistani cooks reaching over 5000mt.
 
Matteo and the cooks however, descended back to Base camp while Simone and Denis continued to Camp 2.
 
In a message from Base camp, Matteo said :
 
“I just got back to base Camp. I went to camp 1 with Simone and Denis, the Polish team were there in their tent. There was too much wind to work today. Jan and Noor, two of the three Pakistani of the staff, came with us.
 
5 minutes after we came back to base Camp, Simone called on the radio saying that they have reached camp 2 and that they were going to pitch the tent. Now they just called again, saying that all is well and they are inside the tent already.”
