No summit for the boys yet. They got as high as 7200 meters but were halted by huge amounts of snow. Had they started one day sooner for the summit, they probably would have made it. For now, the window of opportunity is closed. They had a harrowing journey back to base camp through white-out blizzard conditions (falling into crevasses etc.) but have made it safe and sound. Keith says that up until this point, the weather has been like a "holiday". So, for now, they wait.
