The 7 Summits Club group celebrated the New Year at Union Glacier, but now at Vinson base camp
The guide of the 7 Summits Club Artem Rostovtsev reports from Antarctica:
Greetings from the very southern and sunny Antarctica! Happy New Year to everyone!
We had to celebrate it at Union Glacier and everyone loved it. In the morning a strong wind rose, we had to save the tents rather than watch out New Year's dreams. But the same wind pleased us; the clouds above the base camp blew away and there was a chance to fly up the mountain. The chance was estimated as 50/50, but everything worked out, and we send you greetings from the Vinson Massif base camp. We have already had a delicious meal (everyone praised it) and are preparing for the late evening hike, so as not to starve in the tents until the sun comes out from behind the mountain not early in the morning. We watch the weather, make plans, sort out the delivery.
