I think Rodrigo and Bonnie have done a great job of putting together a very professional and highly competent team and organization. And though I have heard and am sure that Rodrigo himself as well as other AP staff are great guides as well, I was lucky enough to go with lead guide Jim Williams, who is not only fun but also one of the most (worldwide) experienced guides out there anywhere, I would not do the normal route — since Rodrigo’s circuit, going out on the normal route, is such a great circumnavigation of the mountain, that I would not recommend it any other way if possible.
