Don Bowie and

Denis Urubko

made a sprint rush yesterday on Broad Peak , climbing from base camp at 4850mt to 6840mt, gaining 100mt more and working hard on ice, then climbing back down to base camp.

Don also wrote that "We pushed our existing high point up 100m vertical to just below Camp 3 before getting chased off the face by hurricane winds and low temps. Now back in base camp waiting the next weather window."
