It was a relatively nice day at high camp but with weather on the way our team opted to rest, reorganize and prepare for what's to come including their summit day. They dug out and set up their cook shelter, which is a comfortable place where they can all be together, and then they tweaked it to make it a little more spacious. They repositioned a tent which was on uneven ground. There's always something to do, until there's not, and then it's just time to relax.
They will be looking for a good weather window for their push to the summit. This may take a little time as the near term forecast has high winds , which not only reduce the visibility and the temperature but also the fun factor. If the winds materialize as expected they will likely stay in their tents and make the most out of being windbound.
We will keep you posted, so check back tomorrow for another update from Vinson.
