Aconcagua - High Peak of the Americas

November 5th was the start of our journey, our Lan Chile flight few us into Santiago Chile, then we made a connecting flight to Mendoza Argentina.

Our plan was to climb to the top of Cerro Aconcagua - the highest peak outside of the Himalayas. She's 22,841 feet above sea level in the Andes (almost 3,000 feet higher than Denali in Alaska).

Otherwise you can bore yourself some more with my gear list. I'm trying to put together a variety of information for those trying to put together a trip to Argentina to climb this incredible mountain.
