Tent Time In Antarctica

December 3, 2010

What a windy day on the fixed lines looks like. (photo by Eric Remza)

Phil called in from C1 on Vinson to report that they’re in the middle of their first “weather imposed rest day”.  It’s pretty windy where they’re located and extremely windy up high.

They spent the morning building up their wind walls and are currently in the middle of an intense game of Hearts… Assistant Guide Aaron Mainer is currently winning but as Phil said, “nobody keeps stats on who’s winning in the middle of the game”.

The forecast isn’t much better for tomorrow so it looks like they’ll wait it out and see what Sunday brings.

That’s all for now.
