Field Touring Alpine Jamie McGuiness reports; The biggest news is sad. Amir "Chilli, the general" Cuturic is sick with some undefined illness that includes balance problems. He left this morning.

On the mountain we are making progress, yesterday Jamie finished fixing 600m of rope, the alternative route to Camp Half that avoids the bowling alley couloir. We have Camp Half (5350m) set up with two tents and everyone except Chilli has slept at least a night there. Camp 1 is completely full, no space for more tents so we have a "French Camp 1" set about 100 vertical meters above in a safe, if small place, only one tent.

We also have Camp 2 (6150m) in place with three tents up there ready for Malte and Taqui to stay at tomorrow. Everyone except Mike and Jamie have already slept a night up there."
