Spoke with Nickel and Tincho from base camp on Aconcagua this morning. Everyone’s down and safe at Plaza Mulas and enjoying being cooked for by Grajales Expeditions, our service provider on the mountain. Air is thick and relatively warm and only one day of walking with a light pack separate the team from showers, steaks and a hotel bed in Mendoza.
We’ll confirm tomorrow or the following day that all’s well in Mendoza and that the team is readying for flights home.
