\n\t\t\t\tHanging out at Union Glacier (Porter McMichael)\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>
\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nMax reports that the Vinson BC is still socked in, so the team are unable to fly over there from Union Glacier camp.\u00a0 They remain on standby waiting for the fog to lift at VBC. \u00a0Yesterday the team did some training, including a review of how to use the fixed ropes.\u00a0 Then, they did a 10k hike on a marked trail around the Union Glacier BC to stretch out their legs.\u00a0 The Union Glacier camp is a pretty unique place to spend a few days, but it would be easier to get stuck there on the way out, rather than the way in!\u00a0 Rest assured, when the mountain says \u201cyes\u201d the team will be on their way.\u00a0 Until then, they bide their time.<\/p>\n
