Trips 1 and 2 are a wrap. Jonathan’s team made the trek out from base camp at Plaza Mulas.
Jonathan’s IMG Aconcagua Team (Jonathan Schrock)
They actually got snow for the walk out. The old “duffel shuffle†in Penitentes and then into the van and off to Mendoza.
No more walking (Peter Adams)
Team members will be heading home over the next couple of days. Nickel Wood and Martin Lucero will be cleaning gear, doing some more food shopping and getting ready to meet Team 3 on January 7th. Rikki Dunn will be joining the guiding team for this trip.
Robert’s team is already on flights heading home. End of one expedition only means it’s time to start planning for the next.
