February 19, 2020 Always nice to report a wrap to another safe and successful Aconcagua season. Robert, Leo, Nate and team was in Mendoza last night. Flights home follow in the next day or two. It’s a wrap. All four teams this season were able to reach the summit. That means if you had the […]
February 16, 2020 The team’s planning paid off. I just received a text from Robert at the summit. A windy, but not too cold morning, turned into a reasonable summit day.
