The December 12th Expedition Begins

 

The AAI Aconcagua expedition team from December 12th touched Mendoza today and officially started their trip! This expedition will travel through the Vacas Valley to begin its ascent. Today we welcomed everyone and after an introductory briefing we had the gear check. A few meters from the Hyatt hotel we enjoyed a delicious welcome dinner to begin this beautiful adventure. The group hasn’t chosen their favorite team name yet, but we’ll be sure to let you know once we have decided.

Greetings,

Juan
