Aconcagua Expedition Dispatch
January 13, 2014 – The Team is Together at Last!
After a long time of planning and preparations, our Aconcagua climbing team is together and excited to begin this amazing adventure. Wally called today as the team stopped for lunch at one of our favorite Argentine restaurants:
After a good night’s rest at the Park Hyatt in Mendoza the team woke up nice and early to go to the Aconcagua Provincial Park headquarters where we were issued our climbing permits for the mountain.
Ever wondered why we call ourselves Berg Adventures INTERNATIONAL? This year we were thrilled to find out we have climbers from Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Bolivia, United States and Canada! All of us climbers have arrived from different parts of the world with one goal in mind; to stand on the summit of the Western Hemisphere!
