Haven’t written any blog posts in the last few months and I kind of miss it. Not the norm for IMG climbers, staff, guides and partners to see things so quiet. But, indeed, there are signs of life. There is some good news on the Vinson Massif front.
IMG team on Vinson, Antarctica
ALE, our flight service, has made some changes to their flying schedule in an effort to run some trips this coming season. Seems early to worry about Vinson, but the expression ‘long lead time’ certainly apply with this trip. Good news for our climbers already signed up is that they were all able to adjust their schedules to accommodate ALE’s new flight dates and that we were able to snag seats. If all continues to fall into place, IMG is still planning to be in Antarctica in December 2020. Pretty exciting stuff!
