“All Going to Plan” in Antarctica

December 1, 2019

I love Justin’s messages from the Vinson Expedition he’s leading:

“No sun but no wind. Not too hot. Perfect day for a carry to the top of the fixed rope. Team did well. They’re strong. Came back down here (C1) and it’s ripping now at high camp. You can hear it from down here. Today (meaning Dec 1st), wind is diminishing and forecast calls for more improvement the next two days. So, we’ll pop up to high camp tomorrow (Dec 2nd) and climb the following day. All going to plan so far”.

Between C1 and High Camp on Vinson (Emily Johnston)

I have nothing to add.
