Yea! Had a chance to speak with Nic this morning. His mountaineering backpack is in Min Vody:-). He sounds great and says that on the mountain he feels as though he's back in Colorado. At the hotel the terrain is rough and not as attractive. He says that the Russian guides are very friendly but the Russian people stare at the team. Tomorrow night they are having dinner with Russians (I'm not sure if these are the guides or a family...). He mentioned that the food on the mountain was really good and that the food at the hotel wasn't bad either.
They will conduct one soccer camp tomorrow and another on the 6th. Nic says he does not think they are going to be able to swim in the Black Sea.
He sounded in good form...just disappointed that he didn't make the summit. I assured him that we were all amazed at each and every one of the team members and that none of us would have made it even 10,000 feet! CJ Juleff
