Congratulations to the NIS Expedition Team!
The the team is expected back in Europe on
Sunday, June 10, 2001. They have accomplished a great achievement.
Olivier Soudieux successfully made the arduous climb. Nine out of
ten expedition participants climbed to the Himlung Himal summit as
planned.
During their journey, they discovered breathtaking scenery throughout
the difficult ascent to the top. The weather conditions were severe
and the course was tougher than anticipated, but nothing stopped them
from reaching their goal!
Upon their descent from Himlung Himal, there were no means of external
communication and team was cut off from the outside world. Little
did they know what to expect when they reached Kathmandu at the time
of the bloody massacre of the royal family. Following the massacre
of the royal family, most communications were not getting through
and the airport was closed.
The city of Kathmandu was under curfew from 8:00 a.m. to midnight.
However, our NIS Internal Communications journalist Sophie Darrigues
managed to get through on the telephone to Olivier and ascertained
that the team was all in good health after their ordeal. We are eagerly
waiting to hear back from them upon their return to Paris. More news
of their expedition will follow shortly.
We are very happy and proud to congratulate them for their great efforts
and success! Through, project and risk management, team building and
much more. The NIS Expedition team shows us that it is possible to
reach one's objective if we follow our dreams! |
