Aconcagua: All Smiles After Climb To Camp 2
Posted by: James Bealer, Luke Wilhelm, David Price
Categories: Expedition Dispatches Aconcagua
Elevation: 18,300'
We huffed and puffed our way up to Camp 2 today, which sits at 18,300 feet. The team did a great job with the move! Arriving at camp this afternoon, everyone felt a major sense of accomplishment. Ear to ear smiles, and hugs all around! Our hard work today will be rewarded with a much deserved day of rest tomorrow. We have now situated ourselves perfectly for a summit attempt in the coming days.
Till next time,
RMI Guide Luke Wilhelm and team

Congrats on the climb to this point! Quick sports update: Bengals beat KC in OT, and Rams came back to beat SF to set up the Super Bowl match up. US National team lost WC qualifier to Canada 2-0, Ingles tears his ACL, and Harbaugh looking at the Vikings gig. Cavs, after 15-0 start, lose to Pistons and now sit in 4th in the East, while LeBron getting his knee looked at; Zion weighs in at 445 lbs. Have fun, take pictures, and stay safe.
