A difficult decision made.

Location: 48 18.26S,73 30.43W

Well, after much consideration and deliberation we have finally made the difficult decision to retrace our steps and complete our journey back at our original start point. With the terrain and conditions having been most unhospitable thus far, we believe this to be the only sensible and safe option for us. An unanticipated turn of events, yes, but we continue to learn from and rise to meet these challenges.

We have returned to Camp 1 after a tiring day of portaging our load 4 times over a rocky distance of 2.1km. Conditions continue to be wet with an average temperature of around 5 degrees. The clear skies did, however, afford us the day’s highlight – 6 condors soaring overhead. MAGNIFICENT!!!
