Climbing season is well underway in Aconcagua, and our private team kicked off their expedition with a gear check and dinner in Mendoza, Argentina, before starting their journey to Plaza Argentina (base camp during their ascent) over the weekend.

On the heels of our private team, our final team climb has successfully landed and convened in Mendoza. Shortly after arriving, the team completed their gear checks, got their climbing permits, and traveled to Puente del Inca to start their trek. Tomorrow, the team will head to Plaza Argentina, which will also serve as the team’s base camp during the ascent.

Check-ins with our guides indicate that the entire team is psyched to start their climb of Aconcagua via the 360 Route (also called the False Polish Traverse).
