Hi Brandi and Elizabeth its time to put all that prep to work. I’m sure that there is a lot of hard work ahead but remember to take some time to enjoy it all along the way.
Miss you Poo. -Chris

Hi Gilbert-
Plow that road for me! We’ll cross paths in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to seeing you again (do you still have that boyfriend?)

Holà from Huaraz!
We arrived back in the bustling mountain city last night after an adventurous egress on the ever winding remote backroads and unexpected road construction. Nevertheless, our bus driver Levian got us back safely despite having to build a few modest bridges over fresh concrete in the process...Always a good time!
Our week in the Ishinca Valley was surely not one to disappoint. Below are just a few captured moments of our last six days spent learning skills and climbing in the heart of the Cordillera Blanca. Tonight we celebrate our hard work and a great team effort on our last night in the mountains before we head back to Sea Level tomorrow as we begin the long journey to Lima.
Salud!

Our acclimation day at Confluencia Camp started with a hearty breakfast and clear skies. We then began our day hike to see the South face of Aconcagua. The ascent was beautiful and paralleled a glacier as we approached Aconcagua. Finally we reached the view. Even with the upper portions of the mountain obscured by clouds, the face looked impressive. On our way down, we found a little rain, but thankfully it let up once we returned to camp. Now our attention turns to preparing to move to basecamp tomorrow.
Hooray Andy! Very excited for you!
Nope…I don’t feel lazy at all down here at sea level.
