Climbing the World to End Alzheimer's

A Windy Aconcagua

By Alan ArnetteJanuary 25, 2011May 27, 20167 Summits, Aconcagua 2011

Just a quick update from our Camp 2 at 18, thumb 000′.

We made good time after a difficult night of high winds with gusts over 40 mph. But everyone did well on our move to the higher camp.

Tomorrow we do a carry to our High Camp which is the launching point for our summit bid.

Climb On!
