Thursday, November 24, 2005. The way to the base of the roof: When Ice, Mud and Wind come together! Cerro Aconcagua (6962 meters) (Taken by Efrat V.). Starting from Puente del Inca, the legendary and mystical bridge, we did our way to Horcones base, continue on to Confluencia where we passed one night in the Rio Horcones valley before attempting an approach to Plaza Francia, at 4200 meters, which ended in a wind shelter hideout and a glorious view over the roof of the Americas. Riding back to the pass.

Tuesday, January 31, 2006. Patagonia VI: Hanuka and Christmas with Fitzroy. Finally, after almost 9 months of traveling, I finally came to one of the two most famous and popular treks of Patagonia: The Fitzroy trek. Together with Maya and Barak we embarked on a 3-day easy going (most of the time) trek near the monstrous giant granite rock with superb weather and clarity all along. I told her and went into the room to take my camera…. If we can’t take it now, when do you think we can take it? I don’...

Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Patagonia XI: Up the Guanaco. Alone, I went to climb the modest, but yet decent, Cerro Guanaco, some 900 meters above sea level. Interestingly, coming down from the mountain, I had different plans than those when I first started the climb. Stay tuned! And what a scenery! I packed my little stuff, shouldered my backpack and was on the move back down. And there, at the point between crossing the pampa and the wood, the turn point of my journey happened. While I was doing my way ...

Arriving at Cordoba afternoon, I was greeted by light rain and grey clouds hanging heavily over this modern high-rising built city. As the weather didn't improve too much in the passing days here, I have done little excursions outside of town, and most of the time spent in the Internet point, waiting for the upcoming experience of my life. Grey clouds hanging over. Che, Che, Che-Che! Well, once I had a nice day I took advantage of i...
