Description

I will be climbing Aconcagua starting Feb 1, 2011 and am looking for partners.

I will be arriving in Argentina on Dec 2nd and acclimatizing during the next 2 months. Plan on not using guide.

I am 53 and an experienced traveler and hiker. I have been to 5,500 meters with no apparent altitude problems and hiked 51 peaks this summer, including Mount Adams (6,100 ft gain, 1 day), White Peak (14,250 ft) and Mount Whitney (14,500 ft, 22 miles, 6,400 ft gain, 1 day). Do not expect this at Aconcagua altitude, however.

Then it is off to Bolivia.

Email me or post if interested.

	Hi! I am a fit chick, but not sure how I will do at elevation. I am planning on playing around Aconcagua January 13-24 2011. I am traveling alone, and would love to tag a long if you are interested ? I wont summitt Aconcagua for obvious novice reasons, but want to see how high I can go.. Blessings, Jordi
