Pared Sur del Aconcagua - a photo on Flickriver

La montaña mas alta de América, el Aconcagua de 6962 mts. snm. La visitamos en estos días de marzo e increíblemente, es una de las pocas montañas de mas de 5 mil metros que aún tiene nieve y glaciares, algo que evidencia que el cambio climático es REAL. Aquí se lo puede apreciar en toda su enorme maginitud. El glaciar que se ve a la derecha, debajo, tiene una pared de 400 mts. aproximadamente. Toda esta enorme pared sur (una de las mas difíciles del mundo en escalar la modalidad de "límite vertical") tiene una caída de mas de 3000 mts. directos y termina en el glaciar Horcones. /

The highest mountain of America, the Aconcagua 6962 mts. The visit in these days of March, incredibly, is one of the few mountains over 5 thousand meters that still has snow and glaciers, which is evidence that climate change is real. Here you can see in all its enormous maginitud. The glacier is seen at right, below, has a wall 400 meters. approximately. All this huge southern wall (one of the most difficult climb of the world in the form of "Vertical Limit") has a fall of more than 3000 mts. direct and ends at the glacier Horcones.
