Heidi just called to say that she, Claudio and David are all back at the Penitentes Hotel after a nice six-hour hike down from the Plaza de Mulas Base Camp. The weather was perfect and they made good time for the 18 mile trek. Fortunately, it's all down hill (well, mostly- there is one real kicker of an uphill bit...).
They are gathering themselves and their thoughts and might jump in a van and go to Mendoza this evening. The food is better in Mendoza, and the water pressure is greater, so they need to weigh their level of motivation.
Great job everyone!!
Stay tuned, as we will post a lot of photos from the climb when Heidi gets home.
