Vinson Massif: Team Hanging at Vinson Base Camp

Today was a no fly day at Vinson Basecamp… too much cloud. But Tim and I were quite happy to relax with the ALE staff in the comfortable dining tent. It is still something of a novelty to have WiFi way out this way and we enjoyed catching up and eating and reading. For being a “weather day” it really wasn’t all that unpleasant. Just a little cooler without direct sunshine. Now, close to midnight, it is snowing lightly.
