They also got to the top today! Two teams summited, having 14 people up there!

They got to the summit of the highest mountain in America at 22,834′. It was a challenging day, but they worked hard and stood at the highest peak out of the Himalayas, such an unforgettable experience!

Today they are spending the night at High Camp and tomorrow they will return to Plaza de Mulas Base Camp.

Congratulations for this achievement!

The team left the city today and went to the trailhead at Horcones. They had a group meeting yesterday and today they were ready to start the trip!

The group is ascending the Normal Route and they already got to Confluencia Camp, where they will spend the night. The expedition will only last 12 days, as they came already pre-acclimatized, using an Altitude Training System with a hypoxic tent. They are led by the guide Sebastián Satke, who is assisted by Sebastián Ruiz and Sebastián Giordanengo.

The guides will contact us with a satellite phone, so we can follow their steps as they move uphill.

We will keep you posted!
