When I was in Argentina I wanted to see Aconcagua but was not able to see it because the day I went there it was very cloudy.

Cuando (may need a subject pronoun here to avoid ambiguity) estaba en la Argentina quería ver la (not needed) Aconcagua pero no podía verlo (watch agreement) porque (missing a preposition here) el dia que me fue (wrong person)allí ('para allá' sounds better to my ears) era muy nublado.I marked what was wrong above and gave some idea as to why.

I moved your thread to the appropriate for practicing what you're learning.

la(not needed) Aconcagua

Mountains have articles in Spanish.

El Everest, los Pirineos, los Andes...

I would say "el Aconcagua". However, I wouldn't be surprised if there is some regional variation in the use of "el/la".
