Aguja Poincenot, Granite mountain peak in Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina.
Aguja Poincenot rises to 3002 meters in elevation, featuring multiple climbing routes on its east face within the Fitz Roy mountain range.
Frank Cochrane and Don Whillans completed the first ascent of Aguja Poincenot in 1962, establishing the Normal Route on the mountain's east face.
The mountain serves as a destination for international climbers who gather in El Chalten to attempt its technical granite climbing routes.
Climbers access the mountain through El Chalten, with November to February offering the most favorable conditions for ascending the peak.
The Southeast Pillar route, established in 1986 by Italian climbers, presents vertical granite challenges with exposure to Patagonian weather patterns.
