Zach called from the top of the Western Hemisphere!
Three of our team are on the summit of Aconcagua in light snow. Zach, Yasushi and Nick are all standing on the highest point of South America. Hideko and Fermin are just behind, making their way up the Canaleta. Unfortunately, Shlomo was not feeling well this morning and elected to remain back at high camp.
They boys sound elated as well they should be! They worked hard to earn this summit and we’re all proud of them. We’ll keep you posted as to Hideko’s progress as she and Fermin continue their push to the top.
Here’s the call from 22,834 feet above sea level:
