Hopefully, Name is Justin, would like to summit Aconcagua before 2007, atleast this is a goal set. Hear about deaths happening, makes me think. Anyway, just starting out here, don't know much about the mountain, awesome pictures in the meantime. Need a basic rundown of what I'm looking at from flight from U.S. and back.

Hi, I am about to move to Taiwan by the end of next week - not sure how long, depends on how things go there jobwise. If anybody can give me advice about nice hiking, climbing and mountaineering routes and scenic places there please let me know. Thanks
