Arnold reports in on the summit plans 9/27/2004

September 27 Dispatch -  This is Arnold Coster from the Cho Oyu Summit Climb 2004 Expedition. This is a quick message because I am very low on battery power. Today, a team is leaving for the summit, they are planning to summit on the 30th of September. The team is Paul, Neil, Mon, Dan, Ron, Arnold, and Maya. Tomorrow, another team will leave. They plan to summit on the 1st of October. That team is Ryan, Roland, Caroline, and Jacques. All the members are doing very fine, they are very eager to go to the summit, and the weather is fabulous. I hope it stays like this and [unintelligible] when we are safe, down from the summit, and having a big party in Basecamp. See you.... [cuts off]
