Camp 2. (Photo by Nick Haward)
Greg called in this morning from Camp 2. The team crushed it today making the move from C1 to C2 in good time and in good form.
Now that they’re situated at C2, Greg can start thinking about the next few days which includes their summit day. What’s the weather look like? What about the forecasted winds? Any precip in the forecast?
Things change in the mountains minute to minute but the weather models show a pretty good forecast over the next 3 days. Anything beyond that is pretty much hearsay. Cold temps, light winds and light snow are forecasted, none of which is out of the ordinary for Aconcagua.
They’ll continue to take it one day at a time. Tomorrow they’ll carry to High Camp.
