description ABSTRACT IN SPANISH: El artículo examina inicialmente aquellas nociones de lo indígena que, atrincheradas en el pasado, son utilizadas en proyectos del turismo de aventura, para después analizar cómo la re-etnificación actual en los Andes de Mendoza, Argentina, las desafía. Explora el uso del patromonio incaico y el descubrimiento de una momia en el Aconcagua para caracterizar el montañismo como una actividad moderna y transformadora que refleja las ideas tradicionales de raza, etnia y nación. Esto se hace más complejo al concederle a Guaytamari, en el cercano valle de Uspallata, el estatus de comunidad indígena. Con una visión histórica general de los Huarpes Milcayac, que supuestamente desaparecieron de este enclave después de la Conquista, y la contextualización de las prácticas de Guaytamari dentro del proceso de auto-identificación de los pueblos originarios argentinos, el estudio examina cómo esta comunidad representa lo indígeno y cómo cuestiones de autenticidad e hibridez complican los proyectos turísticos y la construcción de un multi-culturalismo regional. // ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH: This article examines entrenched notions of the indigenous past that are used by adventure tourism and how they are challenged by contemporary re-ethnification in the Andes of Mendoza, Argentina. It explores the use of the region's Incan heritage and the discovery of a mummy on Aconcagua as a means of marking mountaineering as a modern and transformative endeavor and reflective of traditional ideas about race, ethnicity, and nation. This is problematized by the recognition of Guaytamari, in the nearby Uspallata Valley, as an indigenous community. With a historical overview of the Milcayac Huarpes, who supposedly disappeared from the zone after the conquest, and the contextualization of the practices of Guatyamari within the process of self-identification being undertaken by Argentina's native peoples, the study examines how Guaytamari defines indigeneity and how concepts of authenticity and hybridity complicate its touristic undertakings and the construction of a regional multi-culturalism.
