The team enjoyed good weather for the carry to Camp 2. It’s a pretty big day, with over 1,500′ elevation gain (at altitude), and the team was rewarded with spectacular views. They woke up, packed up a load of food, fuel and supplies, and ascended the broad bowl of scree at the uppermost portion of the Relinchos Valley. From this point, the team headed north to follow the Ameghino Valley, that separates Cerro Ameghino from Aconcagua. They left the supplies in a sheltered spot in Camp 2, then turned around and descended to Camp 1. The plan is to move to Camp 2 tomorrow, weather permitting.
