Everyone \u00e2\u20ac\u201c all 16 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c summited Kilimanjaro on Christmas day. WOW! One of our customers is a great friend, and his entire family of 5 stood together on Uhuru. A Christmas day they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll never forget. Everyone is down at Mweka Camp, in bed and warm, fed, and dead tired. The entire team climbed strong and is now looking forward to their safari.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aconcagua:<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0 Other Christmas news includes our Aconcagua teams. Mike Hamill and crew took a rest day at base camp and are now getting ready for their first carry to C1. Weather\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s good and forecast looks like nice for a few days. Additionally, Josh McDowell checked in to let me know IMG Guide Robert Janzten and he have arrived Mendoza and were met by our Argentine guide, Martin Lucero. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll finish shopping and packing and be awaiting the arrival of our second Aconcagua team for the season. All good there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinson Massif:\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong> Finally, Greg Vernovage and Austin Shannon are now in Punta Arenas, Chile and waiting for the arrival of their climbers for our second Vinson expedition of the season. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got a full crew, most of whom arrive on the 27th.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom line, life is good for the IMG teams in Tanzania, Argentina and Chile (heading for Antarctica). Indeed \u00e2\u20ac\u201c a very Happy Holiday season.<\/p>\n<p>Phil Ershler<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>December 26, 2015 Kilimanjaro:\u00c2\u00a0 Big Christmas group on Kilimanjaro and a big success.
