Summit of Pico Austria looking at Pequeno Alpamayo (Greg Vernovage)
The Bolivia Team had a great day climbing Pico Austria today. IMG Guide Harry Hamlin said there was snow from Base Camp all the way to the summit but not enough to stop them from standing on top of Pico Austria (17,480’). This is not a technical climb but does a great job giving the team more of an opportunity to acclimatize. The team is now back at Base Camp and will head to the steep tongue of the glacier on Pequeno Alpamayo for training in the morning.
All is well in Bolivia!
