Remember Ed:s motto (from No Shortcuts to the top): "Reaching the summit is optional. Getting down is mandatory". But of course I hope you make it to the top! Good luck to you all and stay safe!

The dispatches are really great for doing this and you should know that your articulate influence and leadership extends to others and contributes to their optimism.

If you summit May 8th, how long will you remain on the mountain and will you help with other expeditions in any way? Has the route been fixed to the summit and has anyone made it yet? Good luck- we received a First Ascent Banner and hope to see its double on the summit in the near future. Mr. Griffith and Vale Elementary 4th graders.

Hope you all are getting plenty of rest. Everyone here at Eddie Bauer at Rapid City, SD are rooting you all on 110% all the way!!! Also, how are the Peak XV suits working? They look really comfy. Stay safe and look forward to seeing some great photos of you, Peter, Ed, and Dave and his team on top of Everest. Then want to see photos of you all back down at BC safely.

Good luck to you all and stay safe. You have hundreds - maybe thousands- of people wishing you well I was lucky enough to visit your store in Ashford WA yesterday and took a Mountain Guide Jacket and Pants up to the giddy heights of 4000ft. The First Ascent product looks great and we were all very happy with how it worked - even if we didn't put it thru the same test as you guys are. May 8th – Wow ! Good luck to you all and stay safe.
