Aconcagua Team Loading Up (Photo by Greg Vernovage)
The crew packed up early this morning and began the drive to Penitentes. If things go according to plan, they should meet Josh Tapp’s group in Penitentes when they complete their hike out from Plaza Mulas. The meeting will be short as Josh’s group will have their blinders on focused on getting to Mendoza for a hot shower, a cold beer and dinner if they can keep their eyes open that long.
For Greg and team, the hike in to Plaza Argentina begins tomorrow morning.
