Climbing Aconcagua: The Highest Peak in South America

Last year, I climbed Aconcagua, the highest peak in South America. It was my first of the Seven Summits, and an experience I'll never forget.

This video is half trekking, half nostalgia, and follows my expedition group as we attempt to reach the summit.

Thank you for making this detailed film Pema!! <3 I am so insipired, ; watching this every week as I train physically & mentally for Aconcagua this Dec!! More power to you!

I've been sick a long time and was forced to retire. I'm not even old. Anyway, I'm not a climber. Climbing is just not my thing, but I want to be healthy again. I can feel the life in this little documentary, and it's healthy for my soul. I sure appreciate that. I thought the dog was cool too. I saw one that climbed everest. I thought that was awesome, but I wouldn't want to see it happen again.

I don't think my appreciation of this is unique, so I'm disappointed to see so few views. I hope it picks up. It's clean video, very well edited, and the music was well chosen. It deserves more than a few thousand views in three months, but youtube is too busy recommending ten year old videos that have nothing to do with my viewing habits.

Pema, thank you for sharing your story. My wife and I are looking to do this at the end of the year. Can you tell me where and how you were able to fly your drone?

This is gold, as someone who has not gone on multiweek long expeditions, this video is a beautiful way to capture the experience! And I can't believe you hanging out with Nims! I'm reading his book right now! Solid bloke!

Great video and very informative 😀 I'm starting my trek in January 2023.

This is an amazing footage. I'll try to keep it as my personal reminder to aim at the top, wherever and whatever it will be. Maybe, one day, Aconcagua

Absolutely fantastic film! Best you tube video we have watched in ages! And to climb with Nims and his team, doesn't get any better than that!😊👏. Thank you for putting this together, and well done on your summit😊

GREAT video and diary. And congrats on the climb and summit as well. I made the top in Jan 2004 - seems a lifetime ago.

hi Pema, nice video, you made it look fun and easy. May I know what month did you go Aconcagua. the trails and summit look dry

[mutekuro]

Pema your videos are inspiring. I found your videos because I was looking for videos on Aconcagua Summits. I’ve subscribed to follow your journey to all seven summits. Best of luck with everything.
