\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nUpdate time from the Southern Hemisphere, as everyone is in position to make some significant movement today. Antarctica is first \u00e2\u20ac\u201c team is doing well.\u00c2\u00a0 It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just fun when you have a strong, competent team. Jonathan called in yesterday that weather is looking good for a move to high camp today. Can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t confirm yet that they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re in camp but feel pretty good about that possibility.\u00c2\u00a0 Remember, Vinson time is Chile time, meaning they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re 5 hours later than Seattle AND the hours when they actually move on the climb differ day to day, depending on their location. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s light 24 hours a day but the sun hides behind the different mountains at different times and no one wants to be climbing in the shade. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s cold. Right now, their climbing hours are later in the day. Maybe we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get a call from Jonathan late today. Regardless, no issues so far.<\/p>\n
Aconcagua \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Nickel reports team hanging in and doing well. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s getting tougher on Aconcagua as they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re getting higher. The team had a good carry to C2, over 18,000\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 and may well be making their move to this new camp today. Big landmark for them.<\/p>\n
We also have a report from Jay down in Ecuador. The team spent yesterday at the Cayambe hut doing a little training\/review and a lot of acclimatizing. Weather looked fairly solid when they reported in yesterday so the plan was to climb today. Won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t likely be able to post news of their success until tomorrow but remember \u00e2\u20ac\u201c no news is good news. Any way you cut it, 19,000\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 is high so they have their work cut out for them. Wishing everyone the best.<\/p>\n
