Aconcagua: King & Team Rest at Camp 2

February 3, 2018

Posted by: Mike King, Jenny Konway, Nick Scott

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Aconcagua

Elevation: 18,000'

We heard the groundhog said it would be six more weeks of summer down here in the Southern Hemisphere. The Team is taking a rest day at 18,000' to prepare for our last four big days of our Aconcagua expedition. Tomorrow we will move camp to 19,000'. Our summit day should be the 5th followed by two big days getting off the mountain and out to the road. The Team is feeling well acclimated and is in good spirits. Today all we need to do is sleep, eat and embrace the down time, a quality that a few in the group mastered while on Denali. We continue to enjoy the grand vistas of the Andes and warm tents.

Mexico’s Volcanoes: Tucker & Team Wrap Up and Travel Home

November 13, 2016

Posted by: Mark Tucker, Hannah Smith

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

AMO MEXICO These climbing expeditions are so much more than putting one foot in front of the other for hours on end. It really is fun and exciting pushing yourself way beyond what you think is your limit. Such a great mental boost and refreshing perspective you return home with that your friends, family and co-workers always benefit from the zest for life you exude. A few hour drive, seamless check in and the team is on the way home. We all not only climbed the third tallest mountain in North America, but were true ambassadors. Thank you team for representing the USA with great poise. Have I told you guys what a great job you did! RMI Guide Mark Tucker

Started a Facebook group to share photos from this trip. (Figured it was the easiest way for everyone to share, plus its free)

Aconcagua: King & Team and Another Rest Day at Camp 1

January 9, 2017

Posted by: Mike King, JM Gorum

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Aconcagua

Elevation: 16,400'

Weather day here at Camp 1. The team got it's first experience with the Aconcagua wind last night. The wind builds above us in the Ameghino Col to the point it sounds like a large set of waves hitting shore. You then hear the wind racing down towards our camp, suddenly bracing in your tent, the poles flex and fabric gets bead blasted with little rocks and dust. An eerie calm follows only to hear the wind building up again. Now repeat for 16 hours. Two down days in a row has the natives getting a little restless. Some will pace, some play cards and some will ask, "So this is mountaineering?" Tomorrow we will get a late start to allow the wind to dissipate before our move to Camp 2. Despite the restless energy all team members are doing great and the guides couldn't be more pleased with how everyone is acclimating and working together. All our best to everyone back home! "Estamos como queremos" RMI Guide Mike King
