Fine page with good pictures I liked photo id 203569.

In the edit mode, choose the 9th box down and paste in

203569 and you will have a nice signature photo.

Hi

Sorry that my answer arrives so late. I've been out for some weeks in Chile to climb several mountains.
I do not know anything about a signature photo, let me check it and I will add any.

Thanks for your comment, and best regards

Uwe

Nice looking page, but which mountain are you referring to?

According to all my maps, there's no mountain of that elevation called Alma Negra at the location you propose.

This is also confirmed by a mountain guide sitting next to me here in Mendoza.

Please have a look at the complete peak list for Los Andes.

As on you other pages:

Once is enough and the following doesn't make any sense: Argentina, South America, Argentina, South America

Add a signature photo.

Add the peak to the relavant group, in this case "The Mercedario Group".

Sorry, can't vote higher than this due to point number one. Please tell me when updates have been done and I'll up the vote.

See further comments. Vote raised.

Peter,

Alma Negra is - as far as I know - a foresummit (and might lack the 400 m elev. difference to make it an independent peak) of La Mesa, and therefore does not appear in Biggar's List.

OK, that's probably it.

Thanks for the info.

For La Ramada peaks it is often better to ask local climbers, not Mendoza climbers.

Agreed on this.

In this case, the guy in question is from La Rioja and has climbed a bit everywhere in Los Andes. The impression I got, is he knows what he's talking about. He didn't knew what you state above though.

I got an explanation for the first issue and therefore the vote is up one notch.

Sorry for my late answer, I was in Chile for some weeks.

Peter answered already your question regarding Alma Negra. May be it is only a foresummit and thus might lack the 400 m difference in altitude. However, in my opinion it is a wonderful climb and should be mentioned at summitpost.

Now to your other comments:

1. the repeat of Argentina, South America wasn't planned. Let me check this and I will correct it.
2. As I had explained already to “desainme” I do not know anything about a signature photo, let me check it and I will add one, OK?
3. I will try.

Hi Uwe!

May be it is only a foresummit and thus might lack the 400 m difference in altitude. However, in my opinion it is a wonderful climb and should be mentioned at summitpost.

I agree to the full. It was my mistake, which as you said Peter got me to know.

Nice updates!

A signature photo is added. Sorry for the late answer, I was in Chile to climb some mountains. Will add some more mountains in a short time.

Nice looking page. Could use a signature picture, but information is definately adequate.
