Aconcagua, the 'stone sentinel' is a mountain with many faces, situated near the Argentinean/Chilean border. Almost 7km in altitude it can be walked al the way to the summit via the normal route without needing crampons. The steep 2.5km high south face offers extreme mixed routes which are amongst the most difficult on earth... Because of adverse weather conditions we gave up at Plaza Independencia (see picture, 6400m). Team members: Carlos Zárate Sr., Carlos Zárate Jr., Cristian Canis, Fernando Affentranger |
