Cordillera Blanca this August

[Jim23]

Hey guys- I'll be finishing up a job in Southern Peru at the end of July, then heading up to Huaraz for a month of late-season climbing/trekking in the Blanca. I'll be with my wife, who is not particularly interested in any serious mountaineering, but willing to play a support/cheerleader role from camp if I can hook up with a partner or two for more difficult ascents.

 

I'm 35, have 16 years of mountaineering experience from Colorado and Latin American high volcanoes, although this is my first time climbing in Peru, and I'm a pretty good ice climber. I'm looking to do classic peak ascents and maybe some more challenging technical ascents (Ferrari Route if it's not too godawful crowded...) if partnership is a good fit.

 

PM me any questions or ideas you may have. --Jim
