This mountain because of its geographical position, due to it is very close to the Arctic, has several differences compared to the others. Its very low temperature and sunlight hours. Only, from 00:00 hours to 02:00 hours, there is a penumbra which distinguishes the short night from the rest of the day. It allows the climbers to advance on the mountain at any time.
DYNATECH sponsors a mountain expedition to climb the most beautiful summit in the world. Three friends of ours have decided to climb to the top of the Mount Alpamaro (5.947 m.) in Peru, next August, to place the name of our company at the tops again.
Adrián Uclés, Raúl Martínez and Fran Lorente are the members of the Dynatech expedition to Alpamaro. All of them have an extensive experience in climbing and expeditions.
After doing all shopping and organize the material, Raúl and Adrián have boarded the light aircraft which have taken them to Kahiltna base camp (2.225 m). In order to advance on the mountain, and after arriving and making all necessary arrengements with the Rangers, they are ready to ascend the Camp I, Ski Hill (2.800 m.), along these 9 km., the climbers will have to carry all necessary material for staying ot the mountain. They are aware that now the weather is favourable for them, so they will make the most of it.
Yesterday, after travelling 180 km. by road from Anchorage to Talkeetna, they booked the flight to the base camp. They are having an encouraging information, apparently good weather is expected for the next few days.
Raúl Martínez and Adrián Uclés have landed in Anchorage (Alaska) at 21:05 local time. The adventure has begun, now is time to act without delay and organize the team, they have to do the last shopping and plan the logistics accurately. The buy of one kilo of excess food is an unnecessary ballast, an effort which should not be assumed.This city is the last great place in which they are going to stay, before going into the Mckinley or Denali, in the language of the natives.They will travel 180 kms.
