trapped in camp 1 after earthquake

25/4/2015

Avalanches have shaken Everest after the earthquake this morning. There is conflicting news but Sam posted the following message at around 9am our time:

"We are ok, all the group. Shaken at camp 1 http://dlor.me/TZ2OLAR"

Since then various reports have come through. The following are from Dan Mazur, the Summit Climb group leader in Base Camp:

A Massive earthquake just hit Everest. Basecamp has been severely damaged. Our team is caught in camp 1. Please pray for everyone.

Alex, Sam, Pat

Its Michael from last year trip ! I was Googling you and found your website (what a year you have had!). VERY much thinking/praying for all of you there. I know you will stay SAFE, so I can buy you all Dim Sum some day in Hong Kong (and one or two drinks rather then at Namche...).
