Mustagh Ata Expedition Underway
Casey HenÂley called in with a few details from ChiÂna last weekÂend. We have been waitÂing to post an extenÂsive disÂpatch from the team, but politÂiÂcal tenÂsions in Urumqi disÂruptÂed interÂnet access for much of the region and it could not be transÂmitÂted. Casey reports that our team is safe and sound, accliÂmaÂtizÂing well and makÂing progress. They enjoyed their city tour in KashÂgar and their time hikÂing at Kara Kul lake at 11,400′. Their plan was to do more acclimaÂtiÂzaÂtion hikes and skills review enroute to base camp. They are now setÂtled in to the base camp and will start movÂing up the climb. We should have more reports called in from the satelÂlite phone in the next week. For now, no news is good news.
