Team back in Punta Arenas

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday, we had an early start out of Antarctica. The flight back from Antarctica to Punta Arenas was very smooth. We were back in civilization on time for lunch, enjoyed the well earned hot shower, rest in the afternoon then meet up with climbers that we got along on the expedition for dinner.

The expedition has officially come to an end and I personally would like to thank each and everyone for your support, love and prayers. I would also like to Congratulate Terry for making it to the top of Vinson and back, especially in a quickest time. I wish him all the best for his future endeavors and a safe travel back home.

Thanks again to all of our friends, families and loved ones.

Cheers,
Jangbu
