Great photo's

Thanks for sharing your great photo's. Makes me long to be there... and in February I will be, on the Vacas side - probably Polish Traverse, in the likely event the glacier won't be in condition. Looking at your images - how you have adapted for all the varied conditions, lighting etc - makes me realise I need to study my camera (Nikon D140) a little more before I go, if I am to make the most of opportunities.

Hi Aniko, so you are climbing Aconcagua again? It must be good then!

Most likely I would be joining the normal route around White Rocks - in which case I will look out for you from there on. In the unlikely event I try the Polish Glacier, I will still look out for you on the way down to White Rocks.

Whichever I wish you best of luck and an enjoyable trip - and here's hoping the weather is kind to us both! I shall also look out for some more of your wonderful pictures after the event!

Best wishes, Mark
