Hello from High Camp! That's the message today from our team on Vinson. The forecast they received this morning included a wind warning for the summit with 30 kt gusts and they made a decision to stay put. The winds are forecasted to decrease significantly overnight and they hope to make their summit push tomorrow in much better conditions.
What do you while you wait out weather? You sleep, you eat, you talk, you look out the tent at the wind, you shovel the snow off the tent, you listen to the sound of the flapping nylon. Then you do it all again. What are some of the favorite meals so far? Ailig seems to be on a roll with the Buffalo Style Chicken Mac and Cheese, and Tay has been pretty into the Chicken Alfredo. We'll find out the rest of the team's favorites soon.
Hope fully the weather forecast will hold and they will have a good day tomorrow. We'll keep you posted, so check back again tomorrow for another update from Vinson.
