Did anyone arrive at more than 5500 meters(16500feet, approx)altitude?
(Just curious)
Last tuesday I was speaking with someone that did it.

FWIW I did Mauna Kea (sp?) in a 4-runner, no trouble getting to the 14500 feet or so.

I did Pikes Peak with my Disco which is about 14000 feet. The engine was sluggish, but it still made it up. I can't type much, I'm in a internet cafe in Australia and the bastards are charging $2 a minute.

Wow!!! According to my calculation, 5,556 meters equals 18,228 feet. Where did you do that?

John C.,

What was the insult, calling you a porteño or boludo?

Calmate loco, te estaba jodiendo. De repente te molesto que te pidiera fotos de minas en bolas en Mar Del?

Salú

First of all let me clarify a few things:

1. Porteños are people from the port of Buenos Aires. Maybe Mr. Gruner is not from BA and he finds that insulting.

2. Boludos means someone with big balls or ball buster or someone who drags their balls (kinda like lazy). Maybe Mr. Gruner finds that insulting which is weird because everyone in Argentina uses that term frequently.

3. And the last thing I said was to send some pics of girls in thongs from a beach area called Mar Del Plata (which isn't such a great beach resort from what I've seen).

I actually was trying to be friendly but that obviously did not work.

Buckaroo, I'M FROM MEJICO!!! Yeehaa...VIVA LA REVOLUCION

I´m from near BA, and may be you are right with your explanations.

Pero Gianpaulo... no le digás a cualquier argentino desconocido eso, que no siempre le puede caer bien!
