The Rooftop of the Americas: Aconcagua - January 2004

IPC Financial Network Inc. ("IPC") is pleased to announce that it will be attempting to climb Mt Aconcagua in order to raise funds for charity. The Aconcagua Mountain is the highest peak of the South Occidental Hemisphere and the highest one of the American Continent. It is an important reference in the beloved circuit of the seven summits.

A team of advisors from IPC's wholly owned subsidiary Investment Planning Counsel of Canada will be leaving for Argentina on December 29th, 2003 in an attempt to climb Mt. Aconcagua.

“Last year we were successful in reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro, Africa highest peak at 19340 ft.” says Steve Meehan CEO IPC.” This year’s challenge will hopefully take the team to new heights of over 22,000 ft and hopefully we can exceed last years fund raising total of $200,000.”

All of the climbers will be paying their own way to go on the Mt. Aconcagua expedition and will be raising funds for a number of different charities. Live audio web casts will be communicated from Aconcagua on www.ipcc.ca.
