Todd and crew called this evening from their Casa de Piedra in the Vacas Valley. They had another nice hike today up the Vacas Valley, enjoying the support of the mules and mule drivers. They hiked for about 6 hours today up the valley to the next camp at Casa de Piedra where they enjoyed barbequed chicken for dinner. They aren't suffering too much yet...
They are now in a position to see the summit of Aconcagua for the first time, and I'm sure are taking lot's of pictures this evening.
Tomorrow morning they will cross the smallish (but very cold) river on mules, and continue up to base camp "Plaza Argentina" where they will enjoy a rest/acclimitization day.
