South America, Argentine and Chilean Patagonia, Fitz Roy

Publication Year: 1978.

Fitz Roy. On February 28 Alan and Adrian Burgess and I climbed Fitz Roy via the American route; this was the third time on that route and the ninth ascent. We had difficulty in digging a snow cave in the usual place near Terray's route but found a good site in the glacial basin on the traverse to the Silla.
