Berg Adventures 2007 Aconcagua Expedition:

December 27, 2007 – January 16, 2008

The highest peak in the world outside Central Asia, Aconcagua has become an increasingly popular goal for Seven Summits climbers who are seeking to expand their experience at altitude. This mountain can be a rigorous and rewarding introduction to the demands of expedition climbing to nearly 7000 meters. On Aconcagua, the task of load carrying to stock high camps, and the challenging weather with its high winds, as well as the fortitude required to stay with one climbing objective for three weeks, have shown many people what expedition climbing is all about.

Join Wally Berg and the BAI Aconcagua team as they go for the summit of the highest peak in the Americas.

Climbers:
