After the mandatory dose of Argentinean steak & Malbec red wine in Mendoza, the merry 13 people team of Aventuras Patagonicas' second trip of the season left town. Martin Molina (Mendoza), Ben Adkinson (Colorado, US) and Claudio "Cacho" Beiza (Mendoza) are the guides. Plenty of experience there. In the 10 climbers side too, with a predominance of Canadian clients in this group. They set foot in the trailhead yesterday, and are now hiking towards the 4.200 m base camp called Plaza Argentina. They will arrive there tomorrow, if all goes well. They will enjoy some views of the East face (Polish Glacier) in the way.

I will post more info soon. Regards!
