Team 3 is back in Mendoza as of last evening. Peter Anderson reports that a long day of hiking and travel led everyone back to Mendoza last evening. Some members will begin flights home today while others will take another day to relax prior to heading home. Hugely successful, safe and happy, this expedition now ends.
But one more group remains for Aconcagua this season. IMG Senior Guide, Mike Hamill, reports from Mendoza that all team members arrived and with all their luggage. Today, they head to Penitentes to finalize their preparations and packing and to spend one more night in a bed before tackling Cerro Aconcagua. We’ll be wishing them good weather and good health. Those are two big ingredients, now. Let’s see how the group does.
