Good morning everyone, it's Ed Viesturs reporting for the Mountain Zone. It's the morning of March 31st. Veikka and I have [inaudible] for about an hour already this morning. We hiked all day yesterday for about four or five hours. Took the porters a little bit longer and we spent the night in a village called Deng. It was a nice hike; we're in this very narrow, narrow river valley, and last night I was unable to get a signal simply because we were so deep down in the gorge... [satellite signal failed].
