Torres del Paine \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Patagonia<\/p><\/div>\n

Tye and team had a perfect first day in Patagonia.\u00c2\u00a0 Went to the Refugio Chileno, dropped their gear and had a bit to eat.\u00c2\u00a0 Then, with light packs, they headed up towards Torres del Paine, the Towers of Paine.\u00c2\u00a0 Perfect conditions.\u00c2\u00a0 One of the most spectacular views of the entire trip.\u00c2\u00a0 Tomorrow, they head up further into the Silence Valley, returning to Refugio Chileno for a second night.\u00c2\u00a0 Basically, things couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be better.<\/p>\n

\"Aconcagua<\/a>

Josh Tapp is saying good bye to his team and cleaning up gear in Mendoza.\u00c2\u00a0 His trip is now complete and members are heading home.\u00c2\u00a0 Nice.\u00c2\u00a0 Up on the hill, Mike Hamill and crew had a good move today to C2.\u00c2\u00a0 They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going to try a carry tomorrow to high camp and then think seriously about a rest day at C2.\u00c2\u00a0 They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll likely see some snow for the next couple of days so a rest day after the carry should fit into their plans and mother nature\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s plan pretty well.<\/p>\n

Bottom line is that all\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s quite good right now in South America.<\/p>\n
