Ojos del Salado Expedition January 2023

“Hi Vivianne,

I wanted to send you a quick note to let you know how fantastic the Ojos del Salado climb was! Eduardo, Elias, and Tobias were great guides, and Hareli did a wonderful job as base camp manager, especially considering that she had to substitute on such short notice.

We had ideal weather throughout the trip, and the mountains were spectacular. Also amazing: the night skies! I work in astronomy, so I knew about the clear, dark skies of the Atacama, but the views still exceeded my expectations.

You’ve really created something special with Chile Montaña — I’ve recommended it to a few friends who’ve expressed interest in climbing in the Andes. I hope to go on another trip myself someday.

Best regards,

Chris Laurel

 Ojos del Salado Expedition March 2023

Hello Vivianne,

What a great expedition ChileMontaña put on for our mountain climbing experience in the Atacama Desert of Chile. The guides (Eduardo, Elias, and Tobias) were fantastic, as was the camp manager Hareli. Everyone worked together as a team. I didn’t make it to the summit of Ojos del Salado because of altitude sickness, but my son made it. However, with the help and encouragement of the guides, and everyone else, I did make it to my goal of 20,000 feet!

If you want to have a great hiking, mountaineering, climbing experience, I highly recommend going with ChileMontaña! 

Thank you!
