Book Reviews of Aconcagua: Summit of South America (Rucksack Pocket Summits)
Book Review: Big Things, Small Packages
Summary: 5 Stars
Small little guy, but packs a punch. First off, it's great to have the water proof pages. I'm sure I'll get all sorts of junk on this book, so good to know it will survive. Great gear list, and it gives reasons why you will need each piece, which is a huge help so you can determine what brands/types of gear to get. Good maps and discussion of the routes.
Definitely would buy this again for other mountains. My buddy had this book for Kili when we did that last winter, and I was wishing I had one. Would also recommend buying a small journal so you can jot down notes on the climb.
