Blue skies on the trail (Max Bond)
The team just pulled in to Casa de Piedras (10,629′) late this afternoon (Argentina time), and we promptly received the following dispatch from IMG guide Max Bond along with some fresh photos: “All is well! Another incredible day trekking! Everyone feeling good, and we got in just before the afternoon showers hit!”.

After a solid night’s rest, tomorrow’s plan is to pack up and head to Plaza Argentina basecamp (13,800’/4198m).
So far so good!
