Chalten, FITZROY Argentina



We did it! This is the place i have been wanting to see since we arrived in South America.



The FITZROY range was majestic!!!!

We were blessed with two great days in the park and we hiked both days, the first to the foot of Fitzroy and the second to the Laguna Torres (tower). This mountain range is one of the most spectacular i have ever seen. You can decide if you agree based on the countless infatuation pictures (believe me there are more).


I truly just sat at the miradors and gazed upon the rugged, craggy, glacial hanging, snow blessed granite as it cut through the horizon. Sin palabras.



Just playing with the camera as we enjoyed a sunny siesta at the base of Fitzroy.


This is Laguna Torres with a high mountain glacier with the torres towering above.

We continue to travel with Magali and Sebastian from Switzerland, it is so fun to share stories and adventures with another couple.

We booked our flight to Ushuaia, in exchange for about $50 extra dollars we eliminate 4 border posts and about 20 hours on the bus, definately a good trade. Next stop "the end of the world."
