Edita called while I was in transit today. Apparently the AJs DID NOT tag the North Col Yesterday. They were close but had to turn back because of high winds and extremely cold weather. They are at ABC today, doing some practice training. Weather permitting they will try to take the North Col tomorrow, then go back to ABC for at least one night and then will return all the way down Base. They will rest for as long as it takes and then go back up. Sorry to those that I had mislead by the last post but as I said, the comms was very hard to hear. Edita seemed to have her voice back today so it was much easier hearing her and the connection was much better.
