International Mountain Guides, LLC Press Release
IMG Vinson Massif Expedition #3
Update #1

January 7, 2009
The entire team, and with all their gear, arrived safely at the Hotel Diego de Almagro in Punta Arenas, Chile.  That's huge.  Gear checks and packing is going on even as we speak.  Tomorrow, there'll be an orientation meeting with the flight service, more packing and preparations, and a hoped for flight to the Ice the morning of the 10th.  Flying is 100% weather dependent.  Delays are not uncommon or unexpected.  But, the first big hurdle has been crossed. 
 
We will continue to update you when we receive news of any importance.
Regards,
