Marmolejo, Pleistocene stratovolcano in San José de Maipo, Chile.
The Marmolejo volcano reaches an elevation of 6,108 meters and contains a 4-kilometer wide collapsed caldera at its summit section.
Three German mountaineers, Hermann Sattler, Sebastian Krückel, and Albrecht Maass, completed the first documented ascent of Marmolejo on October 1, 1928.
The volcano name commemorates Alonso de Góngora Marmolejo, the first historian of Chile who arrived in the country in 1549.
Multiple river crossings and unmarked paths require GPS navigation skills and water-resistant equipment for successful ascent to the base camp.
Marmolejo holds the distinction of being the most southern mountain on Earth that exceeds an altitude of 6,000 meters.
