Is anyone going to Bolivia soon? I'm looking for a partner to join me for some classic mountaineering routes in Bolivia. I'll be there third week in May to mid June.

Send me a message here or better email verduijn78@gmail.com if you are interested or know somebody out there.

Hi,

I'm looking to climb Aconcagua with my 13 yo. (he might be 14 when we actually climb). We recently climbed Kili at 12 yo. He loves climbing with other kids around his age. Is anyone else with kids planning this climb? I'd love to get a group together.

I will be quitting my job end of January to travel around South America, so I'm looking to keep my costs down instead of signing on with a trekking company (~4,000usd). Hoping to meet up with some cool folks to have a good ...

This will be a 3 week trek including travel time from home. Those that want will be attempting to summit 3 peaks above 18,000 feet. The cost should be under $5,000 excluding air travel. It could even fall below $4,000 and come nearer to $3,000 depending on the number of people coming.
