Czech mountaineers Leopold Sulovsky and Josef Lukas climbed Aconcagua (6 962 m) via a new route in the west face.
The news was reported by Czech main stream internet media idnes.cz .
"Sometimes it was quite difficult route," Sulovsky said after return to base camp. They reached the top on January 30th 2008 on the evening and climbed in alpin style, the report said.
Leopold Sulovsky (53 yers old) belongs to the legends of the Czech and Czechoslovak mountaineering. He climbed in 1991 Mount Everest as the first Czech. Now he planed to climb Aconcagua via the south face. But it has been very dangerous because of lack of snow. Therefore they decided to climb by west face, idnes.cz quoted Sulovsky.
