The Adventure is certainly happening when U See up to 41 CMR team now in Uyuni. Also special Thanks to all CMR Team for their positive Kiwi Can Do attitude since arriving in Uyuni. This expedition is huge team effort everyone’s willingness to get stuck in both now and once on the salt will make all the difference.
To Date
( ) Sadly as earlier our containers have been delayed & hopefully arrive on or before 5th October. ??????
( ) As a result we are delaying our event by approx. 7 days. From event originally 5th Oct to Approx 12th Oct
( ) The container that was lost has since been found in Iquique Chile. Hopefully it arrives in time for testing approx. 7th Oct.
( ) CMR Team in this Xtra downtime in Uyuni have been making amazing progress to brainstorm Car Turn around crews etc Especially Charmaine using amazing skills to make dummy parachutes etc for practice Para chute packing
( ) Also it has been good that everyone has had a chance to acclimatise and build connections. For many this is the first time we’re meeting in person.
Reality
