The current weather and weather forecast for Aconcagua at Wetter.com » Aconcagua is the highest mountain in The Americas and the Southern Hemisphere, as well the highest peak outside of Asia and one of the Seven Summits. The mountain and its surroundings are part of the Aconcagua Provincial Park. The mountain has a number of glaciers. The most substantial are the north-eastern or Polish Glacier and the eastern or English Glacier. In mountaineering terms, Aconcagua is technically an easy mountain if approached from the North, the 'Normal route', on this approach no actual climbing is needed although the effects of altitude are severe (atmospheric pressure is 40% of sea-level at the summit). The use of supplemental oxygen is not required. The record for the Normal route is 5 hours and 45 minutes, set in 1991. More typically, the Normal Route is ascended through three camps with additional rest days. The second most common route is the Polish Glacier Traverse route. This approaches the mountain through the Vacas valley, ascends up to the base of the Polish Glacier, then traverses across to the Normal Route for the final ascent to the summit. The routes to the peak from the Southern and Southwest ridges are more demanding and the Southern face climb is considered very tough.
