Congratulations to our 3rd and final Vinson team who summited in style yesterday. After lengthy weather delays their patience paid off and they all stood on the summit!

They are now making their way back down the mountain and starting their journey home from Vinson Base Camp. We are crossing our fingers for good weather for them to fly back to Union Glacier Camp first and then onward off the continent and back to Punta Arenas, Chile.

Meanwhile, our Ecuador team convened in Quito for the start of their trip! Today they are doing gear checks and guide briefings in the morning and heading up for some acclimatization on the Teleférico de Quito before taking an Equator tour!
