Moving up to Camp 3, 14,200ft

The team made the move up to Camp 3 today. It was a bit snowy, but otherwise a pretty reasonable day up there. The guys were definitely tired when they got to camp, but they made it and are doing great. They settled in for at least 4 nights at this camp, so it will be home for a little while. This is a spot where lots of teams congregate waiting for good weather to move up higher on the mountain so it becomes quite a social scene. It is a pretty entertaining place with climbers from all over the world.

Tomorrow they plan to sleep in and take a rest/acclimitization day.

Here's a picture of the 14k camp taken from above, it's a bit of a tent city during the climbing season. Mount Hunter is the biggest peak in the background.
