Aconcagua Expedition: Resting at Camp 1
Our winds have been quite manageable today with occasional gusts, but overall very pleasant. We are resting here at Camp 1, getting used to the altitude before carrying up to Camp 2, the Guanacos Camp, to make a cache for our future move. The team took a short walk to stretch the legs and now are enjoying a siesta before dinner.
Buenas Tardes,
RMI Guide Jake Beren

Hola, ElÃas. Te echo de menos, pero espero que te lo estés pasando bien. Aquà no te estás perdiendo nada, pues todavÃa están peladas las pistas de esquÃ. Tengo novedades, pero para saberlas me tendrás que llamar por teléfono - jeje -(mañana, para Nochebuena, ¿no?)
Tell Jake I appreciate his interspersing of Spanish in the blog posts, and tell Jeff I hope he’s feeling better!
Besos y abrazos,
Bridget
