Looking for Aconcagua climbing partner

Postby sunset » Fri Oct 30, 2009 8:10 am

I am planning to climb Aconcagua the coming Jan, have booked fly from 12/25-1/23, thinking to join a guided trip, but if can find a good partner, also open to do it by ourselves. The general plan is as below. If you are interested & available for that time frame, please write me at cindy.du@smartm.com for detailed information & plan. Thanks!
I have climbed kilimanjaro, Elbrus, Rainier, Shasta.

General schdule:
12/25/2009 fly to Mendoza, Argentina (arrive on 12/26)
12/27, rest & tour around Mendoza
12/28-1/14: climb Aconcagua
1/15-1/22: travel in Argentina & Chile
1/23/2010: fly back (arrive on 1/24)

My friend Kurt is headed there around the same time if you want a great guided experience on the false polish.

Chicagotransplant, Haliku and myself ran into Kurt down on Orizaba last year.
Kurt's a super nice guy. No attitude or pretense either.
