6088m. The Normal route on Huyana Potosi, 6088m, should pose no problem to those comfy on Scottish grade two. From the high pass at 4700m, follow the obvious track to the hut ($10) at 5130m, where there are also many tent spaces. Immediately move onto the glacier and follow the well used guides track past Campo Argentina (5400m,) up onto the ridge to the right (crossing 2ft bergschrund,) before following the path between the crevasses and up a steep slope covered with penitentes to the summit ridge. A drop of 600m down the west face keeps things interesting for the final fifty meters to the top.
