Bolivia Expedition: Frank & Team Check in from Huayna Potosi

May 29, 2017 Hello, this is Eric Frank calling from the Casa De Guilles here on Huayna Potosi in Bolivia. The last couple days have been pretty interesting, yesterday a fair amount of snow fell on Huayna Potosi and we weren't really sure what we would find this morning. When we woke up the weather was good and we were able to climb up to the high Refugio in fairly comfortable conditions. Once again things changed, and it started dumping a bunch of snow so we spent most of the afternoon watching the flakes fall and clearing off the roof of our little shelter. We are just getting tucked into bed now, hopefully things will turn around in the morning. There's a fair amount of snow on route so wish us luck, we're going to make conservative decisions and see how far we can go. Thanks for following along. RMI Guide Eric Frank

Hey Paul - As long as the snow is not past your neck you can make it. Remember how we used to live and hope for the snow. Here you go.
Hopefully the post holing is not a hindrance

Stay strong and stay safe.

Hey Kimmer! Good Luck to you and the gang with all that snow- do you need me to bring you toe warmers?? To quote your 6th grade journal -“I want to climb mountains and feel the GLORY of getting to the top!!” Xoxoxo Lora & Co
