The 7 Summits Club "Malbec" group is preparing to launch its assault on Aconcagua

Greetings from the "Malbec" group on the slopes of Aconcagua! Today we spent a rest day at our base camp, preparing for tomorrow's climb to Nido de Condores. We've completed our altitude acclimatization cycle, and now it's all uphill to the summit. As always, it's a bit nerve-wracking; every climb is unique. This season is full of weather surprises; today the wind blew all night, gusting up to 55 km/h. We passed this test, too; experience camping overnight in stormy weather will be useful. Our friendly team is ready for the climb; follow us and wish us luck! Group guides: Georgy Bushuev and Dmitry Semenov.
