Member's trip to climb Aconcagua in Argentina

 
Member Kevin Walsh is climbing Aconcagua in Argentina.  We will be sharing dispatches as they come in.
 
Season’s greetings:
 
I leave Boxing day for Argentina to climb Aconcagua (6962m/22,838 ft). One of the 7 summits and highest mountain outside of the Himalayan range. A daily blog will be posted - always helps motivate knowing folks back home are keeping an eye out.

If all goes well (success rate typically 40%) we should summit around Jan. 14th.
 
The first group is at base camp now and blog ongoing, our lead guide is Mike King. Have a great Christmas everyone!
