This photo is from the summit of Vallecitos 5461m on the recent Aconcagua trip, taken by Pablo our local IFMGA Guide. Unfortuantely the famous ‘white winds’ of Aconcagua at over 100km / hour prevented them reaching the summit of Aconcagua itself, but an enjoyable trip was had by all – with especial fondness for the red wine in Mendoza.

If you are interested in joining one of our future Aconcagua trips to Argentina (South America) further details and more photos from this and other previous Aconcagua trips are on: http://www.icicle-mountaineering.ltd.uk/aconcagua.shtml.
