Aconcagua
Aconcagua, is a mountain with many faces, situated near the Argentinean/Chilean border. It is almost 7km in altitude is often underestimated which has resulted in serious injuries, mostly on the normal route. The extreme cold, stormy winds and altitude make this mountain a seriously challenging. Standing at 6,962m it makes Aconcagua the highest mountain in the Americas and the highest mountain outside of Asia.
Traditionally there are three guided routes on Aconcagua: Route Normal, Polish Variation, and the Guanacos Glacier Route. I will be taking the Polish Variation route. It is on the East side of the mountain and less traveled which makes us enjoy the wilderness in climbing it is also a much more beautiful approach.
I will be traversing the mountain and go down the normal route. The trip might take up to 24 days depending on weather and other factors in the mountain.
