Aconcagua: Nugent & Team Move to Camp 2

Elevation: 18,000'
Another perfect day here in the central Andes... We woke to sunny skies yet again and took our time eating breakfast, breaking camp, and buttoning up a cache of refuse for us to grab on our way home. We climbed up to Camp 2 at 18,000' in under four hours with big, but manageable loads. As usual the team worked hard and moved smoothly and efficiently through the terrain. Before we knew it we were in camp, set up, and chilling the afternoon away. I wanted to take one last second to wish one of our teammates a happy birthday... So, happy birthday Alex! Feel free to wish him one too in the comments...
Talk again tomorrow,

We are having fun following you on your climb.
Stay healthy and keep laughing. Have you exhausted the poop stories yet? I doubt it.
Good luck.
