Summit / Base Camp --
At 12:10pm after over 5 hours of pretty crazy snow and rock climbing in poor weather conditions, Dan became the first Singapore PR, Roland became the first German, and I became the first Australian to successfully summit the Third Sister.
In Dan and Roland I could not ask for better climbing partners, always with a positive attitude and cool under pressure. Dan we've done this type of climb before and I'm sure we'll do it again. Roland this was such a step up from anything you have done before. An incredible achievment!
Back at Base Camp now and we are all completely physically and mentally shattered! Back to Singapore on Sunday but keep checking the website over the coming weeks for comments from Dan and Roland as well as all the great photos from the climb.
