The team is currently resting in the sweat lodges that are their tents. This camp is known for its windy conditions and without steep ridges and peaks to block the sun, escaping the wind means roasting like a Kenny Roger's chicken. As we continue the trek to Base Camp the size of this valley only grows as the Vacas River gets closer to it's source. After seeing Aconcagua for the first time today, everyone is looking forward to the cold temperatures at Base Camp.  Tomorrow we finish the trek, here's to calm winds and strong backs for the team.
