They got to the summit today!

Sebastián, the lead guide, called us to say the team got to the top.

We are happy to announce that all our trips have so far reached the summit this season.

They stood at the highest peak in America at 22,834′. It was a challenging day, but they worked hard and did a great job.

They are now back at High Camp. Tomorrow they will go down to Plaza de Mulas Base Camp.

Congratulations for this big achievement!

We welcomed this motivated team yesterday. They had their gear checked by the guides and got the permits to enter the Aconcagua park. They also had a group meeting and shared a tasty dinner together.

Today the group left the city and went to Penitentes to spend the night.

Tomorrow they will start the 3-day approach hike to Base Camp, filled with wonderful views. The trail goes along the Vacas and Ameghino Valleys.

The team is led by Sebastián Ruiz, who is assisted by Florencia Torres. They are taking a satellite phone with them to call us.

We will keep you posted!
