"What was your second toughest climb?"

Maybe Cerro Aconcagua in Argentina. I have some photos of it on my FR home page. It took 21 days start to finish and had steep, crevassed glacier at high altitude (over 20k feet). There was very high wind and very cold temps and very heavy load carries. I had frostbite on four fingers and it took years for the feeling to come back somewhat.
