PATAGONIA 2007
SOUTH PATAGONIAN ICE FIELD (October 2007) text
Lago Electrico
Electrico Valley takes all
day
From Marconi Pass I saw a
huge desert
I arrived late to the hut
Spanish expedition set off
first
It's easy to get lost in
these conditions
It cleared a bit in the
afternoon
I pitched my tent in a hole
I got snowed in at night
After 3 days of waiting I
saw blue sky!
Mariano Moreno mountains
2 American girls camped
nearby
Circo de los Altares, Cerro
Torre is the first mountain on the right
Terrain was difficult after
leaving the glacier
I stayed 2 nights in this
hut
Next day I had time to go
and see Glacier Viedma
Viedma is the second
largest glacier in South America
Tyrolean crossing above Toro
River
In Patagonia snow and wind
can come any time!
