Vintage ski school pin which I believe is in Argentina.
the name Ottom Meiling is on the pin.
Here is some info on Otto:
"Otto Meiling (1902–1989) was a German-born mountaineer renowned for his numerous first ascents in Nahuel Huapi National Park, Argentina. He emigrated from Bavaria to Buenos Aires in his early twenties, where he worked as a laborer and developed skills in carpentry and construction. In the 1950s, he built the Refugio Otto Meiling on Mount Tronador, a peak he summited 15 times, which was later named in his honor. Meiling's contributions significantly impacted the mountaineering community in the region.
Tronador is an extinct stratovolcano in the southern Andes, located along the border between Argentina and Chile, near the Argentine city of Bariloche"
The pin measures 1 1/4" from the top of the skies to the bottom.
Good vintage shape.
