From AAI lead guide Tad McCrea:
The team got an early morning wake up call crossing the river to the Relinchos Valley. After a cold and windy start, we wove our way up braided trails to Plaza Argentina (14,000ft) also known as Base Camp on Aconcagua. It is unseasonably cold up here at Base Camp, but we are looking forward to warmer weather and a full rest day tomorrow!
