6x6 EXPEDITION
6 mountains that surpass the magical 6000 metre mark, 6 different objectives, 6 new summits, 1 single expedition. San Francisco (6,018), Tres Cruces Norte (6,030), Barrancas Blancas (6,119), Vicuñas (6,067), Ermitaño (6,146) and Peñas Blancas (6,030) are the 6 milestones that constitute this ambitious and challenging project.
Once set up at base camp at the Laguna Verde (4,300 mts), all climbs can be accomplished for the day, leaving from- and returning to the the comfort of the camp for each climb. This allows to good food, the lovely hot springs and a well-deserved rest to be enjoyed throughout the expedition.
Although this is a physically demanding objective in the sheer number of climbs, these are relatively short climbs that take between 3 and 6 hours each to cover a little more than 1000 metres of elevation difference. For this reason, just a decent level of fitness, focus and determination are paramount to meet these continuous challenges. For every two mountains there is one rest day at base camp.
