Bandits at Camp IV

Maureen has updated blog after speaking with Brian on May 23rd.

According to Brian, they have had an unexpected setback at Camp IV. They arrived after their Sherpas had set up and stocked Camp IV with their food cache. Apparently, the previous group pillaged through and took a large enough portion of their food to to prevent them from going forward without replenishing. Steps have been taken to have the supply replenished so that they can carry on with the business at hand. Brian thinks he know the guilty party. I didn't get a chance to ask if this was a common concern on the mountain. All who know me well enough, know what I would do once an opportunity provided itself, to those horrible dispicable people.

Otherwise, it did sound like everyone is healthy, at this point with the use of a bit of oxygen.
