Our Artesonraju/Huascaran team is off and running with a fast ascent to the summit of Pisco today, which acted as a perfect acclimatization peak for this very strong team. They were so quick, in fact, that Chad had underestimated their fitness and they wound up on the summit with time to spare before sunrise and were able to experience that very beautiful moment from a proud mountain top. They are spending the evening back at the hut and will walk out in the morning and head to Caraz, from where they will continue on to Artesonraju base camp and begin the first of their main objectives. Wish them luck!
