Great News From Aconcagua Canada Tomorrow

SOUNDS LIKE OUR LAST TEAM OF THE SEASON, MICHAEL AND KIKE, ARE FEELING SUPER STRONG. WE’VE HEARD FROM THEM DURING THEIR REST DAY AT PLAZA DE MULAS BC TODAY, AND THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A SUMMIT DAY ON THE 26TH!

Great news. Meanwhile, there is still quote some altitude to gain still! But slowly and surely is the name of the game! Tomorrow they will head to Canada Camp at 5000m.

Kike reported in that yesterday they made the hike from Confluencia to Mulas in just 6 hours; this is a really good time, and everyone is feeling great today after that effort. Today is a day for rest, and organization of equipment and food for the next step of the journey up Aconcagua tomorrow.

Best of luck!

“Willie and Damian set the bar as high as the mountains they climb!”

“In my experience, few provide a more complete, safe and rewarding expedition experience than the Benegas Brothers. When it comes to expedition judgement, safety and climbing ethics, Willie and Damian set the bar as high as the mountains they climb. There’s a lot more to high altitude climbing expeditions than just getting to the top. Team dynamics, the opportunities to learn skills, making lifelong friends, enjoying new cultures and cuisine are some of the important elements of an expedition. In my experience, few provide a more complete, safe and rewarding expedition experience than the Benegas Brothers. When it comes to expedition judgement, safety and climbing ethics, Willie and Damian set the bar as high as the mountains they climb. My son Matt and I have 100% trust and confidence in Willie and Damian and when I’m not climbing with Matt, it’s reassuring to know he’s with the Benegas Brothers. ”
