IMG Senior Guide Nickel Wood along with Guides Leandro Villegas and Martin “Tincho” Lucero (yelling in the background) checked in from Plaza de Mulas to let us know that “All is well and everyone is happy!” The team descended from High Camp this morning after a successful climb of Aconcagua. They woke up early, packed and prepared loads for the porters and made great time descending all the way to Plaza de Mulas. After a quick toast of champagne with the team, it was time to repack and head to the helipad where they would grab a flight back to the Horcones Park Entrance. the team is currently in the air and will update us when they get to Mendoza.
Enjoy these great photos that the team sent out between celebrating their successes and continuing to move down valley by helicopter!
