    We met this motivated team yesterday! They had a group meeting and tasted a typical barbecue paired with some local wines.

    Tomorrow they’ll start hiking the Normal Route along the Horcones Valley.

    The group is led by the guides Sebastián Ruiz and Florencia Torres. They will keep us updated, calling us by sat phone.
