We’re about ready to call it good for this successful IMG Vinson Expedition. IMG Senior Guides, Greg Vernovage and Aaron Mainer and all six team members have returned to the comforts of Union Glacier camp.
They’re sitting around in a big Weather Port tent. It’s heated and they’re being served three meals a day. Scenery is spectacular and they’re probably playing cards, drinking coffee and sleeping most of the day. Tentative flight to South America is on the 10th. But hey, it’s Antarctica. Things change.
Regardless of which day they fly, it’s been a super smooth, super safe and super successful trip. Antarctica provided the team a memory which will last a long time.
