While the past two audio recordings came in simply as static, we know that the December 1 team has their cache in place and will be heading up today to spend the night at Camp One! This will be their third time ascending the trail, and their loads will be light, so they will likely be able to move quickly. Mountain Trip guide Brian Muller was able to send us a couple photos! We’re hoping that they get a bit better reception at Camp One.

The team making their way up from Plaza Argentina (13,900′) to Camp One. Aconcagua’s glaciated summit looms in the center of the photo.

Argentina: Not the best place to be a vegetarian. The team enjoyed many “asados” or barbecues on the lower mountain. Tasty protein to help fuel them to the summit!
