Can somebody recommend a few good alpine climbs with resonably easy approach in Chile that are in climbable condition in late December/early January? I'm looking for something around AD level of difficulty, not interested in the many F walk-ups. "Reasonable" approach is defined as not requiring a 24hr bus ride from Santiago;)

Also, if any of you know of any relevant guidebooks, I'd greatly appreciate a pointer...

Thanks! Igor
