John says things are going "beyond perfect". The local Russian people have said they cannot believe how easily our group has made it through passport control and travelling. They are currently at 11,800 feet. They are asleep right now. Tomorrow they will hike to 15,000 ft to adjust to the altitude; then, if the weather is good, go for the summit. John said it is very cold, but the boys are doing fantastic and have great attitudes! They have even had the chance to overcome an obstacle. The airlines (not sure which one) has misplaced Nick's bag - his mountaineering bag. The rest of the team divided up their gear, and Nick is fully outfitted. Reception on the sat phone is okay - so hopefully we will get a call tomorrow!
