Nearly everyone who went to Aconcagua has heard of Andy Jones. He’s one of the most accomplished guides in the region and has summited Aconcagua 44 times! Andy was born in Rosario, Argentina’s capital of the pampas (flatlands). During his early career, he worked as a physical educator (a job he’s still very proud to keep), but eventually moved to Mendoza and lives there for the last 26 years. Andy Jones has climbed every sort of Andean mountain since he started climbing in the early 90s. He also climbed several high peaks including the highest in Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. The well-known Andy Jones is an extremely relaxed and easy going person. All this patience probably led him to conquer the reputation of being one of the most successful guides in Argentina with one of the highest summit ratios in the country. Andy is definitely the guy who you want to have around if just started climbing high mountains.
