Hows Aconcagua looking now?
Speaking of Aconcagua, climbers might check the mountains conditions live, on AconcaguaNow, a website working during the peaks climbing season. It includes web-cam images from BC that are updated every ten minutes. Story corrected on Feb 28, 2006. Holmes Pantoja notified ExWeb that his Aconcagua speed record was achieved covering the distance from and to Horcones Valley (2850m), and not from BC to BC (4200m) as we had originally written. At 6962m, Aconcagua – meaning the Stone Sentinel – is the highest mountain in the American Continent. It is located in Mendoza region, Argentina.
