Tired of slow old ski touring? How about a Speed Flying descent of the south face of Aconcagua. François Bon completed the descent of this 22,841’ summit after an 11 day approach march, covering the 9,000 foot face in a little under 5 minutes. Bon has already speed flow the Eiger by the west and north faces, as well as Mont Blanc.
