Just got back from our meeting with the group. There are 20 runners, 20 climbers and 10 scientists trying to fly down to Patriot Hills. We just got back from a meeting with the logistics company and learned that it is still blizzard conditions at the ice runway down south. There is over 2 feet of snow and massive winds. Best case is that we fly down there on Sunday. Everyone is very focused on getting the run in and getting back in time to catch our return flights in time for Christmas with our families. Sounds like that is still going to happen.
A group of us are renting a car and camping gear. We are going to head south and camp along the way for 2 nights. I will report more later....
