Aconcagua Expeditions – Luck Is Always Necessary in the Mountains

We continue ascending en route to Canada Square, and we leave behind a rocky promontory called “Piedras Conway” (4750 meters) named in honor of the English scientist William Conway. He toured the area at the end of the 19th century, where we took the time to take a break.

On this journey, we were “carrying” material to supply the high altitude camps of Mount Aconcagua, a practice that consists of gradually carrying the necessary load to use in the different stages of the ascent and that, as we mentioned earlier, also contributes to acclimatization, since you go up to a certain level.

Considering that the weather continued to deteriorate, I proposed my partner the alternative of abandoning the ascent. Luckily my colleague, although with great pain, accepted this possibility. We gave up on continuing with the expedition.

We continue ascending a little towards the next high camp, “Nido de Cóndores,” at 5400 meters, to “try” a little the feeling of being at higher elevations, and then we begin our descent.
