Ray and Jay arrived exhausted but excited in Mendoza. They have all checked into a fancy 4 star hotel for 2 nights......hmmm I thought they were climbing a mountain.....! They get to exploring this charming city of Mendoza, in the heart of the wine country, is always a highlight of this trip. This will be right up Rays' alley and it will drive him nuts that he cannot taste all those delicious wines in his reach. Today they will wander around and enjoying the parks, sidewalk cafes even try some local cuisine. Also giving them a chance to take care of any last minute stuff they may need. The team will meet up for dinner later. Mendoza is a 4hr bus drive away from the mountain range.
Some info as to which way they climbing up Aconcagua. They climbing via the False Polish Glacier Route which was opened in 1934 by a group of Polish mountaineers (it explains its name) and it was the first route after the Normal Route. It´s known worldwide for its natural beauties its enormous landscapes and it has become one of the classic routes for sportive Andes enthusiasts.
