Learned Traveller

Spent the night at Camp 2 on the North Col at 7,700 metres (25,250 feet) and then returned to Base Camp to rest for a few days before we climb back to Camp 2 and attempt on the summit.  Weather is sunny but very cold with plenty of snow.  The scenery is spectacular and very beautiful.  Feeling OK except for normal altitude sickness.  Message delivered by satelite phone, hence brevity.
