Aconcagua Expedition: Jake Beren & Team Depart Mendoza

Posted by: Jake Beren, Elias de Andres Martos, Geoff Schellens | December 14, 2011
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Aconcagua

Hello everyone,
Our team has arrived in Mendoza excited and ready to start our Aconcagua adventure!
After finishing up our permits, grabbing the last minute supplies at the grocery store and gear shops, we are ready to head out of town.  It is a beautiful day here in Mendoza and should make for a great drive to Penitentes where we will ready our gear for the mules and have one last night of Argentine cuisine before switching to the equally appealing mountain cuisine that will fuel our climb.

Tomorrow we will leave civilization for a few weeks and start the climb. Wish us luck everyone and stay tuned as we work our way up this beautiful mountain.
