Vinson Massif: Summit!
Posted by: Dave Hahn, Seth Waterfall, Billy Nugent | November 26, 2011
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Vinson Massif
Elevation: 16,067'
Hey, this is Dave Hahn, and I’m on the summit of Vinson with a wonderful team. I’m with Billy Nugent, Seth Waterfall, and eight very strong climbers. We had a wonderful day. We got up on top at 4:45 in the afternoon. We headed out of camp this morning at 9:30, it all went really well and we lucked out on the weather. We’ve got blue sky and sunshine. On the top right now with gloves off and it’s just a beautiful day. We’re all feeling extremely lucky. We will give a call again from our high camp, when we get back there. I don’t expect to have too many troubles getting back there as everybody’s climbing really well. Everybody seems quite happy here on the highest point in Antarctica, 16,067 feet. There we are. Very good.
