Looking down at Plaza de Mulas from high on Aconcagua
IMG Senior Guide Nickel Wood just sent a message letting us know the team had fantastic climb to Nido De Condores Camp on Aconcagua today. It took the team a total of 5 hours round trip at a comfortable pace. They dropped their carry loads at approximately 18,000 feet, where they will set up camp next time up.
The weather continues to be in the teams favor and if everyone continues to acclimatize and feel strong they will move up tomorrow. With plenty of time built into the itinerary, they are not feeling any pressure to move fast and they will continue to make progress as the mountain and weather allow.
All is well on Aconcagua!
