 This trip is for those with experience in Cold weather camping as this extreme environment is extremely taxing This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and begins at Punta Arenas Chile.  A flight from there to Patriot hills and a further flight to the base of the mountain is required.  From the base camp a further two camps are established with lots of cramponing required.  Trip costs will be around US$ 35 000
