The team completed the Aconcagua traverse, by descending from the summit via the Normal route. In their way down they launched the more challenging and risky stage of the trip: the chain of celebration dinners, starting at base camp Plaza de Mulas (picture) yesterday, followed by the one planned for today at Los Penitentes (the lodge close to the trailhead), and still one more party here in Mendoza, scheduled for Monday. Again, congratulations to all of them.
