My problem was lack of a good tent and gloves and maybe going a bit to fast. Went Puenta de Inca to Ibanez (1 day), Ibanez to Canada (1 day), Canada to Berlin (1 day), and on the final day feeling exhausted on Indepencia I tried to rest in my $14 kiddie tent and was so out of I turned around. But I met some great people all around and in the park that I'm not at all mad or upset about it. It is a great mountain.....
Afraid to say that, judging by your previous posts, I absolutely knew this would be the outcome. If you only had another week, you'd've had a better chance. Waiting a bit longer, even to work up cash to pay for the extra needed gear, could have allowed you just one needed visit to the summit, and you could then go to other places. Pity, but you know your body a bit better now for sure.
