The team had beautiful weather today for their move up to the Plaza Argentina base camp. It was a bit over 6 hours of trekking to reach what will be their home for the next several nights. At base camp we have a big dining tent with tables and chairs and a cook providing great food, so they aren’t suffering too badly up there. They’ll settle in tonight and plan to spend tomorrow resting and acclimating to the high altitudes before venturing higher on the mountain.
Here’s Nick from base camp:
That’s my boy!!
Enjoy the shelf that lives above us.
Watch the change of light so close to the edge. It shimmers with jewels of passing thoughts.
Love and care to you
