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.

This is the "Five Spartans" group from Aconcagua National Park. Today was our first day of trekking. In the morning, we camped at Puento del Inca Camp, packed up, and drove to the park entrance. Our permits were checked there. We then hiked to the first intermediate camp, called Confluencia Camp, where we saw Aconcagua for the first time. We checked in and rested at the camp. Tomorrow we'll be acclimatizing at Plaza Francia. With you were 7 Summits Club guides Sergey Avtomonov and Leuan Atabiev.
