As I've been telling people about the trip, they've been sending me various different links and things to read. Two different people (Collin and Alex) sent me links to Alpinist magazine's website. I have been unable to find a print copy of Alpinist yet, but it looks like a nicely done magazine.
The have their first issue availiable for download here. It's all about mountaineering in Patagonia. It was a good read -- I suspect that I'm in for quite a challenge with my NOLS course. Collin also sent me a link to their page describing Aconcagua. I think that mountain will probably have to wait for a different trip, but we'll see...
