Description from the creator

Aconcagua is located in Argentina and is one of the 7 summuts of the world. It is the highest peak in South America and the highest peak outside the Himalayas. Last year I was not able to summit as the weather was terrible on the final day. This year I have taken a new approach and feel confident with summiting Aconcagua! Learn how my training strategies compared to last year!

Here is what I could find on Amazon from what I talked about:
Hiking poles: amzn.to/2M6WWUf
Hiking boots: amzn.to/2VHpiUx
Headlamp: amzn.to/2M8tQDZ
Backpack: amzn.to/2YL5UIe
Garmin watch: amzn.to/30Yr3zD
Long-sleeved shirt: amzn.to/2JRKch2
