Hello everybody, this is another checking in for Vinson V4 Team. We had an another day in Punta Arenas.

We got our first self COVID test done today, followed by gear check in the afternoon. Everyone on the team is ready for the climb. We are moving one step at a time. We still need to do couple more self COVID test before we fly to down to Antarctica. We all went out for our official group dinner and called for the day.

Hello,

Thank you for following our cybercast. The last few days we had been stuck in a storm in Union Glacier. Luckily a small break in the weather today allowed for us to fly back to Punta Arenas. We are calling loved ones, showering, eating, and working on travel plans to return home.

Here are a few photos from our trip. Best!
