We must bear in mind that to climb Mount Aconcagua we will have to, if necessary, adjust our footwear with gloves on, the boots we choose must meet that requirement. With the heat we emit when we walk, the inside of our double boot can get wet. The usual tactic is to put the inner booties with us in the sleeping bag overnight, leaving the carcass on the outside.
In the morning they will be dry and hot. The same is true for stockings. As important as the clothing and our camping equipment is the technical material. The use of technical equipment is essential to be able to overcome all the eventualities that we may encounter.

At 6960 m, Aconcagua is the highest mountain outside the Himalayas, and is suitable for hikers.
It takes at least 15 days to climb to the top, including acclimatization time to the altitude. The traditional ascent is by the northwest route, through a 40 km path from the Laguna de los Horcones; the Polish Glacier route is longer (76 km) and harder, but more scenic and less crowded. The south face route is a demanding technical climb.
Only expert climbers should tackle Aconcagua without the security of an organized circuit, and even so, many hire guides who know the changing weather of the mountain
