This is the Hailes Aconcagua team. We have made it to the summit! The whole team is happy and healthy. It's been a long day but we are happy to be here. We'll turn around and head down here in about 20 minutes after we take some pictures. We will check back in after we are back to camp. Wish us luck. We will talk to you soon.

Hurrah!! Way to go you amazing team of 3 climbers. Way to start 2022 by climbing the “hard fun hill”. You are an inspiration. Thinking about you everyday while in the pool training for a few open water swims. Safe travels down.
