Chilean Dream Team Makes a Carry to 16,400 feet

We heard from Ryan yesterday an he reports that the "Chilean Dream Team" (thanks Sabrina, for the new name!) has made their carry of supplies up the steep fixed lines and on to the rocky ridge at 16,400 feet. This part of the route has the steepest climbing and climbers employ the use of fixed lines to more safely ascend it.

Ryan said that the team is living up to its new moniker and that spirits are high. The weather has been a bit of a mixed bag and there is a chance for snow today and tomorrow at higher elevations. Hopefully, there won't be enough new snow to impede the Dream Team's upward progress.
