Congratulations Mark and Company! John Branchflower and I summited with Ilan Zeimer of Grajales on Jan 23 and then returned to Penitentes via Plaza de Mulas Base Camp, so we didn’t see you on our way down. I managed to buy an air mattress from one of the Canadian climbers at Plaza Argentina who was heading back down to replace the one that blew up on me, or I think it would have been heading down myself. See you in Ashford this summer! Craig Falkenhagen, Atherton, CA

Hey Dawn!! Did the winds keep you from sleeping too? You can sleep through a jack hammer! Well I hope you all were able to get caught up on your much needed sleep.
Cool picture!! You are all so brave and adventurous!

Wow, this picture is amazing! Continued safe travels all. Fingers are crossed for those light winds and that much needed sleep! As Sabina pointed out Nick, due to your elevation, you were much closer to Kenna on her birthday yesterday, than the rest of us.:)) I hope you wished her a big HBD! I love you, Mom
