Team on the Summit!


Reported just 20 minutes ago, the whole team is on the summit of Mount Vinson - Antarctica's highest mountain!

Sunning accomplishment!

You might note as we did, there are some slight inaccuracies in either the Google Earth terrain and imaging or in the GPS data reported from the tracking device that Garrett is carrying.  The reported elevation is also inaccurate (reporting 17,287 ft. on the summit which is actually 16,050 ft.)

  1. We have confirmed that the inaccuracies are with the Google Earth terrain/imaging. GPS data from the tracking device is correct.
