More good news from Mexico… Phil reports that the weather is holding nicely for the crew. They enjoyed a nice acclimatization hike today and some training above the hut.
They’re currently hydrating, loading up with some calories and going through their gear one last time. About 12 hours, round trip, on summit day is what it should take.
We’ll know more tomorrow when Phil calls in.
Stay tuned.
