Dirty Dozen Team Reporting

Posted on by alpineascents

The Dirty Dozen team has started today their approach hike to Plaza Argentina base camp. Today we walked the Vacas River valley for the first time, joining Punta de Vacas and Pampa de Leñas at 2800 meters above sea level. All the climbers were able to enjoy the activity in a relaxed and fun way. Finally, and with the help of our "Arrieros"(muleteers), we were able to enjoy a nice dinner with a typical Argentine barbecue, grilled vegetables and also pizza. Tomorrow we continue with our ascent and acclimatization process to the Casa de Piedra camp. Kind regards… Juan
