Vinson Team is at High Camp!

Jacob Schmitz called in from High Camp on Mount Vinson.  The team moved up today in calm, beautiful weather.  They made very good time and spent the afternoon digging in and fortifying their camp.  There is some wind forecasted for the coming days, so they will wake up tomorrow and might make an attempt at the summit, to stay ahead of the wind event.  As with most days in the big, cold mountains, it is important to wake up and poke your head out of the tent before making a decision!

Here’s Jacob:
