Highest Mountain of All AMERICA CONTINENT. Mount Aconcagua is the highest peak in the Americas, in the Western and in the Southern Hemisphere. The name Aconcagua comes from the native South American language Keichowa (Quechua) and means "the stone sentinel". ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very nice video and great explanation. I'd like to do Boundary and almost feel like Montgomery is a must given that Boundary is really just a subpeak, but the descriptions of all the scramble that I've read sounded much worse than you have laid out here.

Nice job documenting those two adits up there! I’ve been to this area several times over the last 15 years or so. Always found most of the mines there to be duds like you did. As you mentioned, the underground workings must’ve been somewhat significant based on the size of the waste rock piles outside both adits. I tried doing some research on those mines but was never able to find any old mining reports or anything like that which had descriptions of the underground workings, production amounts, and other related information. They seem to be a mystery and are, unfortunately, decaying into oblivion.
@themountainexperience5692Ай бұрын
Thanks! I wish there was more information on that area. It’s a bit out of the way from our usual mine explorations in the PNW but like you said I couldn’t find anything significant when I looked into it. I love your videos by the way! Your exploration of the victorine mine years ago was one of the things that first inspired us to start documenting the mining history in our corner of the country

@daviddavis26484 ай бұрын
A good tactic on this climb is to down climb the route which allows one to go very light since you don’t need to carry overnight gear over the summit. The climb is mostly 3rd and 4th class and we didn’t use a rope in either direction when I did it many years ago. From a bivy site near the base it took three hours to reach the summit and we’re back at Rainy Pass by about 6 pm. This wasn’t an original concept as other friends had used this same tactic in their ascents as well. Anyway I also know folks who had descended to the south, but it seems like an unnecessary complication, since it seems as if that route, while shorter is at least as difficult. I’d honestly be hard pressed to find much 5th class climbing on the NE buttress. That said, it’s a very nice outing in a lovely area.”

been there during summer but wasn't able to get up the waterfall so missed the adit. I'll have to try again someday. Not sure if was just editing for time but there were a lot more artifacts down by the lower camp. Did you miss the firewood still stacked up? The last few tenths of the road in was also unadulterated surface tram roadbed. Most of the road was widened for automobiles. Thanks for great video!

There are supposedly quite a a few other mine sites up the valley along the same road on either side of the creek. There is one adit for sure that as of last time I was up there (2010's) was open about 2-3 miles past sunset.
@themountainexperience56927 ай бұрын
The Non Pareil mine is up a ways on the same side of the creek, which we explored. I’ve heard the same thing about several adits on the other side of the creek. There isn’t an easy way across the creek that we found so accessing them is probably a matter of seasonal timing when the creek flow is lower

The "building" did in fact exist I put eyes on it (from a distance) in the mid 2000's on one of my visits to the area. It was at the far end of one of the large stopes visible from one of the big surface collapse areas. Had some windows and at least a couple stories. Don't think it was possible to get to it though but I wasn't neary as brave (or skilled) at going underground as you guys.

I went in mid-December and arranged the permits through Inka Expeditions via their basic logistics support package. When you use a local company to file your permit it costs less than if you try to do it on your own. Thats really the only document you’ll need once you enter the park. Best of luck to you!

It’s open year round, but I don’t think the road is always plowed so in the winter there may be extra distance up the road you have to hike. With snowshoes, good weather, and firm/low enough snow I would imagine it would be a good day hike in winter. It’s a very popular snowmobiling location
