Bon Dia! The group "Argentina one love" continues to acclimatize. Today we went to Plaza Canada, our first 5000 meters.

Tomorrow we rest and prepare for the ascent to Nido de Condores, where we plan to spend a night. The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

Bon Dias from the slopes of Aconcagua! Our team "Argentina one love" has finally arrived at the Aconcagua base camp – on the Plaza de Mulas. The whole day took the walk from Confluencia  to Mulas.  Just before the camp, a small snow began to fall, but this is no longer a hindrance when you see the long-awaited tents.  We were warmly welcomed and accommodated in the camp. We were treated to delicious Iranian tea, and in the evening we cooked Argentine meat.  Tomorrow we have a day of relaxation and recovery, as part of the rest we will go to the hotel of the last century.  Maybe we'll visit the gallery of the artist Miguel.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Argentina:

Bon Dias! The group "Argentina one love" continues to acclimatize and move towards the goal. Today, as part of acclimatization, we went to the Horcones gorge, under the Southern Face of Aconcagua, to a place with a beautiful name Plaza Francia. Having climbed to a height of 3955 meters, we decided not to go further, since visibility was limited.  We sat for about half an hour, drank tea, had a snack, told a portion of stories.  On the way back, it turned sharply colder and a fine rain began. We managed to get back to the camp before the serious rain.  In the evening we had a "medical check", a doctor's check showed that the condition of all participants is excellent. Tomorrow we have a long walk to the Plaza de Mulas base camp.  We hope that there will be no precipitation in the afternoon.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

Bon Dias!  "Argentina, one love." Today we leave the cozy corner of the Penitents and move on. First, the bus took us to the entrance to the Aconcagua National Park, where we registered our permits and received the necessary instructions about the rules of behavior in the park. Then we went to the Confluencia camp, which is located at an altitude of 3400 meters. For the first hour the sun shone brightly and it was hot, then the weather began to deteriorate, and when we were already approaching the Confluencia, a headwind blew and a rain began to fall. Here we needed all the necessary set of clothes that we had in our backpacks: from light fleece to membrane.  We settled at the Confluencia in two houses.  Now we are resting, waiting for dinner. Tomorrow we are going towards the Plaza Francia.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

Bon Dias!  We are in the Plaza de Mulas!  The Coca-Cola 2×5 group came to the Plaza de Mulas, an altitude of 4,300 meters, this is the Aconcagua base camp. Here we will spend most of our time, simultaneously making radial and acclimatization rotations before storming the summit. The path from Confluencia to Plaza de Mulas is 18 km, with a height difference of 800 meters. The first part of the way passes through the valley of the river without a significant set, and the second part of the way, from where the camp is visible, passes through the rugged terrain of the western slope of Aconcagua.  We are resting today.  We are recovering.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Argentina:

Buenos  Dias! The Coca-Cola 2 ×5 group, after the first night at 3500, in Confluencia camp, to consolidate acclimatization, made rotation towards Plaza France, climbing to a height of 4000 meters. We did not reach the Place France itself, as it takes 6 hours to go there in one direction.  We decided to save energy, because tomorrow we have to climb to the Plaza de Mulas, and this is already 4,300 meters and 18 kilometers over rough terrain, sometimes meeting with herds of mules, and in the heat above 30 degrees.  After returning from a walk, there was a daytime siesta, after which there was a mandatory medical check giving permission to move to the next camp.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.
