Greetings everyone, this is Dave Gruss calling in for Aconcagua Team III. It is the 24th of December, Christmas Eve here. We just arrived at base camp and we are just getting settled in and hydrating. We Spent a long hot dusty day yesterday hiking up to Casa de Peidra, a long 14 miles, but it’s great to be at base camp. We are just checking in, but we just wanted to wish everyone a happy Christmas Eve out there. We’ve got a little tree by our tents here and we’ll be checking in tomorrow for Christmas, everyone out there have a great evening, ciao for now.
