• Aconcagua: The Roof of the Americas

Details: Each year over 3,000 climbers pit themselves against Aconcagua. And this number is growing. Located in Argentina, Aconcagua stands at 22,841 feet. Not only is it the highest point in the Americas, it's the highest mountain outside of Asia. Bearing such stature, Aconcagua draws climbers from around the world. With technical routes that challenge even the hardiest of climbers, surprisingly this hulking giant permits an accessible path to its lofty summit. However, accessibility cannot be underestimated. With high altitude, bitter cold and violent storms -- conditions which are always prevalent here -- there can be consequences. This entertaining and informative video follows two guides from the International Mountain Climbing School as they lead a group of six climbers for the summit of Aconcagua. This comprehensive look at climbing Aconcagua details every aspect of this expedition, from their arrival in South America to the moment they step foot of the roof of the Americas. Experience first hand the difficulties associated with high altitude mountaineering and its effects on this team as well as others. If you're planning a trip to Aconcagua, this video is a great primer.
