We avoided the busier Ruta Normal and instead followed the Vacas Valley on the approach to the mountain, gradually getting introduced to the thin mountain air along the way. Three days of trekking, fording rivers, and navigating twisting valleys brought us to the base of Aconcagua’s hidden east side where the climbing began. From the Base Camp at Plaza Argentina we followed the Guanacos Variation. We established three successive camps on the ...

In 2013, Bill Bennett walked the Camino Frances – the iconic 800km ancient pilgrimage route across Spain. Before he left, he began a blog for a handful of family and friends.

When he returned home, he wrote a book based on the blog posts. The book, called The Way, My Way, became an international best-seller. The book then became a highly acclaimed ...

From Grand Junction, I conquered the high passes of the Rocky Mountains with a slight detour due to a snowstorm west of Salida. When I reached Pueblo, I altered the ...
