Aconcagua Expedition: Team Arrives at Camp 1
Hi there,
Team Aconcagua checking in from Camp 1 (16,200'). We arrived at camp around 3 pm today. It took almost 5 hours for us to complete the move to our new home (we are planing to spend 3 nights here).
It started to snow right after we set the tents and it hasn't stop since (3 hours), the accumulation is just 2 inches so far.
We are ready to have dinner and relax for the evening and recover from our move. Tomorrow, if the weather is good and everyone is feeling well, we plan to make our carry up toward Camp 2.
We will check in tomorrow when we are return to Camp. Thanks for all the comments on the RMI blog, keep sending them.
Cheers,
Team Aconcagua

Rooting for you and the team Tom. As we get into our warm bed at night, we can’t help but think of you folks out there on that cold mountain. Gotta love it, right? Stay safe, a universe of love, Mom and Dad
