New Snow at Base Camp

Robert called to report that the final acclimatization exercise is postponed for today. The camp has received 5'' of new snow. The experts say it is better to wait a day, so that is exactly what Robert's group is doing. This will give his sore knee another day to recover.
Weather on Everest can be a real challenge so there are extra days built into the expedition plan to accommodate for the unexpected. Hopefully there won't be any other weather delays on this trip.
