Aconcagua: Tucker & Team Finish Packing, Prepare for Trail

January 8, 2017

Posted by: Mark Tucker, Pepper Dee

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Aconcagua

Elevation: 9,000'

Logistics, logistics logistics! Today was an action packed day in the Andes as our crew assembled and packed gear in preparation for our trek tomorrow. We started the day in Mendoza, gathering our climbing permits and stuffing a van full of duffel bags. In the afternoon we headed for the hills, and unpacked and resorted our loads in the ski town of Penitentes, our launching point for the climb. It's been a long day, and the team is itching to hit the trail tomorrow. Looking forward to checking in from the Vacas Valley! RMI Guides Mark Tucker & Pepper Dee
