Vinson Massif: Hahn & Team Rest Day at Low Camp

November 29, 2021

Posted by: Dave Hahn

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Vinson Massif

Elevation: 9,300'

Today was a fine and calm, sunny day from start to finish. Just perfect for resting. We took it easy and tried to catch up on napping and hydration. This camp is 9300 feet above sea level and so it was a good acclimatization day as well. The sun hit camp at about 10:40 AM and melted the frost collecting overhead in the tents… the perfect alarm clock. We ate a leisurely breakfast in our small dining tent and then retreated to the warmth of the tents for the day. Dinner was in strong sunshine at 8:30 PM. We intend to put in a good hard day tomorrow, carrying loads up the fixed ropes.

Best Regards,

RMI Guide Dave Hahn
