I guided a group of 15 pax for Topas Travel. A group of happy and strong people who all had the dream of reaching the top of South America's highest mountain. We were totally 7 people on the summit (12/2 2012) after about 8 hours walking in snow and strong winds. Nice trip.
Next year I have two departures to the mountain. Check http://www.topas.dk/ for more info.
I also got the opportunity to test my new climbing boots from Scarpa.(PHANTOM 6000) Super cool and with a pretty amazing fit. The hike up Aconcagua is not climbing in any way and I look forward to testing them for real - on ice, snow and at high altitude in the soon starting Himalaya season. I'm back in Nepal in about four weeks from now.
