Aconcagua: King & Team at Plaza Argentina

January 25, 2018

Posted by: Mike King, Jenny Konway, Nick Scott

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Aconcagua

Elevation: 13,800'

After an early wake up call the Team enjoyed clear views of Aconcagua on a beautiful day to finish the hike to our base camp, Plaza Argentina. We hiked through the scenic Relinchos River Valley while our bodies continued the acclimatization process. Base camp is situated on a large glacial moraine that is covered in scree. The Team is resting after setting up camp and everyone is looking forward to rest day tomorrow. With all the comforts of home except a comfy bed, we'll sort some gear and food, knock the dust off with a shower and take in the stellar views this place has to offer...rough life. Thanks for following along. RMI Guide Mike King
