Hi Everyone,
Well, it seems as if the various groups searching for SI and the camera came up empty once again. ENews found a severely damaged decapitated body with leather boots, but the evidence suggests that it is Chinese. (They gave it a legal, as opposed to the Christian, burial they were planning for SI.)
Otherwise, and perhaps more significantly, Dave Hahn (who summited for the 5th time) and Jake Norton indeed carried on a search (they apparently were the stealth searchers up there early who ENews reported seeing carrying metal detectors.) No definite annoucement of their findings, but it's pretty clear that neither SI or the camera were found. At least they have appear to have eliminated more real estate from the possible places of interest. Apparently Dave spent quite a bit of time up at Camp VI, seemingly shadowing anyone who appeared to be searching for SI (at least one person's interpretation.)
I went on a brief vacation across the pond a few weeks ago and was delighted (not only to make it- unlike last year) but was able to finally see TTV on the plane on the trip back. I don't think it even came here -or I missed reading the paper the one weekend that it came). In any event, I thought it was terrific and was happy to finally see it.
BBob, any chance that you might be making your 100th summit with EV? :-)
Best regards,
Rose
