After hiking the Vacas Valley and the Relinchos Valley, the 6 climbers and 2 guides arrived today to Plaza Argentina (14200 ft). The approximation trek has one of the most spectacular views of the whole mountain, the Polish Glacier (picture from a previous trip).
Everyone is fine and hungry. Our base camp chef, susy, will see to that. Martín (lead guide) promised to send me a picture from a sat phone. I will keep you informed!
