Climbing Nevado Chachani (near Arequipa, Peru)
Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2006 11:22 am
Hello,
I wish to find out about snow conditions on Chachani, to know if crampons and ice axe are really necessary, or if it can be done without ?
- No glacier whatsoever, just snow slopes ?
- Any penitentes ?
- Is it a nicer ascent than El Misti ?
As usual, thank you !
