Today they went down glacier to pick up their cached food and fuel, tomorrow they will take a well deserved rest day to acclimatize, re-organize their equipment and review some fixed line technical skills. On the 11th they plan to carry up the fixed lines with extra food and fuel for high camp and on the 12 they will rest again (a great strategy for acclimatizing). On the 13th they will see how everyone feels and if all is well with climbers and weather they will move up to high camp.

Sorry to leave you hanging there!...At high camp, climbers typically rest a day and then go for it the next day if the weather is perfect and everyone is feeling well.
Way to go team!
