MM Guide Juliana Garcia writes in to report that all six clients have arrived in Peru for the Chopakalki and Ishinka expedition.

Here's a look back on one of our awesome adventures this summer. Alan Rousseau reported from Peru after a successful expedition to the Cordillera Blanca. 

"I am writing this while on the second story of a bus bound for Lima.  The intimidating glaciated fins of the Cordillera Blanca lay peacefully in the rear view.  I have spent the last two weeks guiding Yanapaccha and Chopikalki.  Climbing in Peru has been a dream of mine for years. However, my calendar from June to September (the climbing season in Peru) has always been dominated by guiding for Mountain Madness in the Cascade Range. 

The first trip of the season to the beautiful Chopakalki (19,939') in the Cordillera Blanca has met with success! Joining guide Tyler Anderson was Jerry, Elaine, and Shea. After warming up on Yanapaccha, the group hit a perfect weather window and reached the peak a little over a week ago.
