After some hard work (and no small degree of patience) the AAI Aconcagua team is back on it’s original schedule.
The team made it to Papa de Lenas (9,330ft/2,844m) in good time and everyone did very well.
After a delicious breakfast of eggs with vegetables and cheese (Tad really likes cheese) they began the next part of the expedition, making the long 9 mile trek to Casa de Piedra (10,665ft/3,251m). From this camp, one can see the Polish Glacier on the giant mountain.
The plan for tomorrow is trek into Aconcagua Base Camp at 14,000ft!
