“Excellent company in all aspects of the mountain. I was amazed by their logistics, camps, food and the quality and quantity of guides. We had two guides up to base camp, then three up to Nido de Condores, and four on our summit day with a group size of eight climbers! So there’s always a guide to take you up if others climbers need to descend on summit day”
