The teams on Aconcagua are doing great.

Starting up high at Camp 2 (Nido de Condores) at 5,585m we have our Private climber Lauren and Guide Sasha moving strongly. They had their work cut out for them today with lots of fresh snow to cut through making the going tough. They are tired but in good spirits. They’ll take their rest/acclimatization day tomorrow.

Back to Base Camp, our Team did a successful carry to Camp 1 today, dropping off group gear and food for the climb before dropping back to Base Camp for their final night down low with wifi and the ability to send you real time photos. They plan to move up to Camp 1 tomorrow and will be checking in regularly on the satellite phone.

Private Team Noor & Guide Nani also carried to 16,400ft and will move to Camp 1 tomorrow and are doing well.

Calm winds and mostly clear skies today. Let’s hope for more of the same in coming days!
