Three Times A Lucky gives a shout out to Phil after traversing and ascending up to Camp 4

Hello this is Danny, Ben, and Capi calling in for Team Three Times A Lucky on Aconcagua.

Today we successfully moved from Camp 3 to Camp 4. We had a pretty relaxed morning, got out of camp around 11 o’clock, made the long traverse across and up Aconcagua to 20,500 feet, where we are right now. And relaxing this evening and just had dinner and getting ready for summit attempt tomorrow afternoon, or tomorrow, all day tomorrow.

We just wanted to give a shout out to a member of our team who departed just after leaving Camp 2 a few days ago. We wanted to give a shout out to Phil. Phil, we’re thinking about you and we’ll be thinking about you all day tomorrow. And we’re proud of you and you’ll be with us in spirit, buddy.

Alright, we will give you a call back tomorrow with a cybercast after a successful summit. Alright.
