Lonely Planet review for Cerro Aconcagua
Mendoza is famous for Cerro Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Americas, but the majestic peak is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to climbing and mountaineering here. The nearby Cordón del Plata boasts several peaks topping out between 5000m and 6000m, and there are three important rock-climbing areas in the province: Los Arenales (near Tunuyán), El Salto (near Mendoza) and Chigüido (near Malargüe).

Could have a bit more info as far as how to get permits
minnesotamax recommends this,
If you are planning on coming to Mendoza Argentina to climb Aconcagua I will suggest in advance to stop by the Secretary of Tourism office downtown Mendoza on San Martin Ave 30 meters North of Garibaldi Ave.
The climbing office is on the second floor and the first door on your right.
