The 2023 Aconcagua Disasters

[@vincentvilasi5108]

Climbed Aconcagua in 2011. It’s not technical but I saw a lot of high altitude pulmonary edema and a few cases of cerebral edema. No doubt people can die there if they push beyond their limits. I had a pulse oximeter and my oxygen saturation was 77% at the summit, which is pretty typical. Saw people that needed to be guided down at night in the dark and freezing cold.

[@Madamchief]

Same. People don't take the altitude seriously enough

[@houseofsolomon2440]

Me too~

[@paulgrey8028]

Would that be because many of those climbers did not acclimatise themselves sufficiently before going for the summit?

[@RobertLegereIII]

@@paulgrey8028precisely but even the most “acclimatized” can succumb. It’s a gamble, no matter what.

[@j.whiteoak6408]

Some people's bodies simply cannot acclimatise to very high altitudes .. and unfortunately I've had to accept that I am just one of those people. I've shared a love climbing with my Dad since I was a child, but the highest peaks will forever remain outside of my capabilities due to persistent altitude sickness. Even the trek to Everest Base Camp can turn back the youngest, healthiest, and fittest of bodies, and the highest point on the trek is 'only' 5,364, with most of it being at lower altitudes! Mountain Sickness is no joke, also known as High Altitude Sickness, or HAS. A mountaineer can summit Everest nine times without ever suffering from the illness, only to suddenly pass away on the 10th attempt. Just one example of this is the case of Namgyal Sherpa, who was a mountain guide who had worked his way up from a porter and cook to guiding his own clients to the summit. But he was also a passionate champion of cleaning up the mess left behind on Everest by decades of climbers before him. Apart from being a very talented mountaineer and downright nice guy, it's for that reason that to this day, I still regard Namgyal as one of Everest's truest Sherpa heroes. At the end of each season he would take a team of mostly Nepalese climbers up into the DZ to clean it up, and each year they would bring down thousands of kilograms of trash for disposal, including DB's - and these guys were up in the DZ without any O's for 28 days straight during that process!! But no one is immune to Altitude Sickness - not even Sherpa. It can strike anyone, at any time, and without warning. So on 16th May, 2013 after Namgyal had successfully guided his client to the top, and summited Everest's peak for the 10th time himself, he suddenly became ill on his descent, stopping to rest just above Camp 3 and alerting his friend and fellow Sherpa to his sudden illness by pointing to his chest ... and then he died! It was later determined that he had suffered from sudden onset of HAPE - aka High Altitude Pulmonary Edema...or swelling of the heart due to fluid. HACE is also prevalent among climbers, aka High Altitude Cerebral Edema, or swelling of the brain. There are other forms of Mountain Sickness also, but it's all related to the lower oxygen levels at higher altitudes and how one's body copes with it. This is why climbers don't just turn up at 8,000'ers and head for the summit. Instead, they must first spend 6-8 weeks doing 'rotations' - ie, climbing up and resting in the higher camps to allow their bodies to acclimatise to the high altitude, before coming back down to lower altitudes to recover. Finally they are ready to head for a summit push. But if H.A.S. persistently makes one ill at just 5,000 meters, then one can pretty much forget about any of "the big ones". I've always been envious of climbers who can cope with high altitudes. Best wishes to you all, and safe climbing : ) And Rest In Peace, Namgyal Sherpa - 16th May, 2013 .. Always remembered.

[@paulgrey8028]

Very sad. Spending 28 days up high is so dangerous, Namgyal must have known that as well as anyone. Pulmonary edema affects the lungs actually [not the heart] where excess fluid fills the air sacs [alveoli]

[@j.whiteoak6408]

@@paulgrey8028 True - and thank you for the correction : ) But it causes the heart failure, which is the eventual actual cause of death. And yes - Namgyal definitely knew the risks of H.A.S.. He brought down enough DB's of climbers who had succumbed to it. He and the 30 or so members of the Nepalese team which he led up the mountain at the end of several seasons in a row to clean up, mostly in the DZ & without supplement oxygen for up to 28 days - were so extraordinary! - not to mention the approx. 2 tons of trash they brought down with them at the end of each season! But they would also bring down several deceased climbers on each expedition, & in 2010 he single-handedly brought down a body from high on Lohtse, by himself, all the way down to Camp IV, which the two peaks share as their high camp. He almost died from sheer exhaustion & exposure in that process himself. So yes, he'd handled the DB's of quite a few climbers who had succumbed to H.A.S.,and he knew better than most. But he was so very passionate about cleaning up the mountain, & if he were still here I believe he would have worked tirelessly to solve the problems of trash etc - both on the mountain and at nearby Gorak Shep, which is where all of the rubbish & human waste from EBC is transported to on the backs of Yaks, where it's tossed into deep pits. These huge pits can't be seen on the trek in or out of EBC, as they're hidden out of sight behind higher ridges, but the contents of those trash & waste pits are known to be leaching into the Khumbu River - which is the water source for millions of people downstream. Samples show that even micro-plastic are present in the water. Namgyal was so committed to cleaning it up that after working his way up from a porter & cook up to a guide, he started his own Everest expedition company (called "Mountain Consult") so he could both support his family & give them a better life while he could also continue to fund the cleanups of the mountain. But sadly he died after having successfully guided his client to the summit, which was also his own 10th achievement. On this occasion he was 'only' in the DZ for around 18 hours & not 28 days - however I don't know if he was supplimenting with O's. And yet he succumbed so quickly. His climbing partner & friend said that he'd shown no signs of illness - until he pointed at his chest & passed away shortly after. I really admired him for his commitment to his hopes & goals for the eco-health of the Everest & Khumbu region, & I've no doubt that it would be a much better & cleaner environment now, were he still in the world. His passing is testament to the serious nature of High Altitude Sickness, & highlights my point that it does take lives, and it does not discriminate. Some of the greatest climbers in history who have never suffered from mountain sickness before have been cut down by high altitude sickness. H.A.S. is no joke, and my point is that it can strike any mountaineer at any time - regardless of who they are or how many 8,000'ers they've conquesd without suffering the catastrophic ill-effects of H.A.S. beforehand. And sadly, there are far too many of them that have : (

[@Re3iRtH]

Correct. I am fortunate to not have felt anything at all on the Inka Trail, highest point 4200m, also felt nothing on nearby Rainbow mountain 5500m. It felt like a hike at sea level. I'm actually curious what altitude sickness feels like!

[@dennisemaracle2475]

I listen to a lot of these videos and wonder why they never acclimatize on Aconcagua

[@lappmarksweden4582]

I have been on every climb in the Alps. I never had a problem with acclimating but on my 20th birthday, I took the Diavolezzabahn up to 3300 m. I became almost immediately ill and needed medical care. Even on the descent back to the station Diavolezza, I needed medical care. This was the first time I used another transportation than my own feet. Ever since I have been very cautioned to use these kinds of rapid transportation.

FYI… you mention no ice ax required, however there is a snowfield you cross just before the final gully to the summit (Normal Route) that most certainly does require an ax and crampons (although you don’t rope up). A slip here without an ax to arrest your fall would send you and a very long, and likely fatal, slide down the mountain.

I climbed Aconcagua a few years ago straight from base camp - 5 days in total. Too many beginners there and I saved someone from death who had no clue he was dying from severe mountain sickness.

[@Werevampiwolf]

Statistically, you're more likely to die on the way down than the way up a mountain, especially on an established path and/or on a high altitude peak. Mostly because people push themselves and give it their alls to reach the top, and then don't have the energy to get back down. Moral of the story, don't push yourself to the breaking point before you're even halfway through your journey.

[@Foxyfreedom]

Yeah. Going down also works different muscles. And if you’re forward facing, your momentum encourages a slip/fall.

Your attempt to end the two narratives about the army veteran's summit attempt is not rigorous enough to persuade a doubter. Not only do you need to show that the photo was taken at the summit of Aconcagua, but you also need to show that the climber was there when the photo was taken. Anyone who is fairly skilled with photoshop would be able to create that image by combining a photo of him from another mountain with a photo of someone else at Aconcagua. The best clue is what he was wearing in the photo. Are there other photos of him wearing exactly the same clothes but taken elsewhere? Are there photos of him from the high camp at Aconcagua showing what he was wearing that day? By pursuing that line of enquiry, you could have made a much stronger case that he did, indeed, summit Aconcagua.

I'm afraid the question about whether the nonprofit group actually made it to the summit is still in question. It will require a more in-depth investigation. I don't have an opinion either way.

Inexperienced mountaineers generally don't appreciate how conditions such as weather and terrain can dramatically alter the character and consequently the difficulty of a climb and combined with AMS, cerebral or pulmonary edema ... the net effect can be deadly.

Try 1.5x speed. I like the channel but I like it better when I speed him up a little lol

​@@DT_Worlds_Strongest_GothWhats the hurry? Not everything needs to be narrated at a speed like a 15 year old girl talks.

There are plenty of TikTok videos made by kids that talk quickly and end in 30 seconds. When you reach puberty, you'll realize that slow, clear narration is more desirable.
