#14: Natalia esta bien a la espera de evacuación/ Natalia is OK waiting for
Published at 05:03
(English below) Hola a todos. Muchos se han comunicado preocupados por la situación de Natalia y ofreciendo ayuda, en particular luego de que la noticia fuera difundida por los medios de comunicación en Canada (link) que han estado en constante contacto siguiendo los eventos. Por esto queremos agradecerles por su ayuda y buenos deseos y contarles que ella sigue bien, pero bajo durísimas condiciones climáticas, con fuertes vientos y nevadas que han requerido de todas sus fuerzas para poder mantener su campamento a salvo. Pero si hay alguien que sabe cuidar campamentos en una tormenta es Natalia! Y aunque no esperaba un terremoto, si está muy bien preparada para las tormentas! Y experiencia no le falta ya con muchos "kilometros acumulados" en sus aventuras Patagonicas.
Estos han días muy duros para ella, primero con la decepción de ver su ruta devastada por un terremoto, obligándola a abandonar el sueño de la cumbre, y luego con esta espera forzada en medio de una fuerte tormenta. Sin embargo, lo está haciendo extraordinariamente bien, manteniéndose a salvo en todo momento. Estamos ansiosos de tenerla de vuelta sana y salva.
El pronóstico sugiere que la tormenta seguirá pegando duro hasta mañana en la tarde, luego irá paulatinamente mejorando hasta desaparecer el Viernes. Una vez que el tiempo mejore ella evaluará si es seguro desescalar hasta la base del filo, y de lo contrario será evacuada en helicóptero.
Todas nuestras fuerzas y corazones están con ella para que se mantenga fuerte y segura hasta que pase la tormenta.

Hi everyone, many of you have reach to us worried about Natalia's and offering support, specially after the news made it to the main Canadian media (link) , that have been in permanent contact following Natalia's progress. That's why we want to thank everyone for they support and best wishes and tell you that she is in good shape, doing well but under very harsh weather, with very strong winds and heavy snow fall, requiring her to put all her strength into keeping her and her camp safe. But, if anyone knows how to keep a camp safe in a storm, that is Natalia! She wasn't expecting any earthquakes but she was very well prepared for storms. And she is not short on experience in such conditions with already a lot of "mileage" in the infamous Patagonian weather.
These have been very difficult days for her, first by finding her route devastated by an earthquake, forcing her to abandon the dream of the summit, then due to a forced wait in the middle of a serious storm. However, she is doing extraordinarily well, keeping herself safe even under all this circumstances. We are anxious to have her back and safe.
The forecast shows that the storm will keep hitting hard until tomorrow afternoon, then it will be loosing strength to dissipate on Friday. Once the weather improves, she will evaluate if it is safe for her to downclimb to the base of the ridge, otherwise she will be retrieved by an helicopter.
Our best wishes and hearts are with her to stay strong and safe until the storms goes away.
