This is a candid account by a group of wanna-be mountaineers who attempted to summit Mount Aconcagua. The book's value lies in the numerous problems that the group encountered from start to finish. Useful lessons can be learnt from the mistakes that the group made, and can be applied to any high altitude climbing expedition. The reader is left astounded at the errors and lack of preparation that can change a serious expedition into a nightmare of problems and broken dreams.
