I have spoken to Josh today (Leader) and he has informed me that both Indus and Shyok have successfully climbed a 5806 m peak and are all safe and well at the advanced base camp.
Zanskar and Karakorum fires are currently at their advanced base camp at 5000. All are well and I will be speaking to Mick Pawley (Deputy Chief Leader) tomorrow for a full update on Zanskar and Karakorum's progress. I will post this information on the blog as soon as I have finished speaking to Mick.
"Sherpa Cricket" seems to be a popular activity at base camp. Current Ashes' score has been relayed to the expedition.
