Gernot on summit of
Cerro Aconcagua

Cerro Aconcagua

Personal memories:
Fantastic view through the Relinchos Valley on Aconcagua during sunset.
The ligament rupture which I got between Basecamp and 1st high camp resulted in some rather painful moments during the climb.
After finishing the summit on my own and being 200m down again, I met Mike our guide, escorting Sarah, I joined him walking up again and we had again a beautiful view over the Andes and especially on the south Aconcagua wall.
