River deep mountain VERY high!
... the old ones which I couldn't find this morning.
The wind has picked up today and although the sky is still pretty clear, it is a bit chilly. Very different from yesterday and I think this wind is more typical of this area. The walk starts off up hill for an hour, which after yesterday is not easy against a headwind! It leveled out a bit for another 2 hours. Lots of plank bridges over ...
Torres del Paine and Fitzroy Massif
... on seeing Charlie struggling said “You guys are my heroes” The final hour of the walk is basically up a moraine – a jumble of boulders – Oliver’s legs went wobbly, Charlie refused to go on so got a lift on daddy’s back and all was good when we hit our first patch of snow and enjoyed a quick snowball fight. One of the lasting memories of today has to be the number of times we had to stop and change clothing layers – ...

There is a monument which was unveiled in June on Ruta 3 at the entrance to the base to mark the 30 years since the Falklands war. Right outside our hotel on ...
17-hour drive in icy Patagonia
... we leave the cabin at 6.15am. I drive with extreme caution: freezing temperatures can lead to treacherous road conditions. We are so close to the pole that the sun doesn't rise until 9.30am so we get plenty of time to enjoy it slowly.
Trouble starts when we get close to Esquel, with snow on the road. Within 15 minutes we see two big rigs flipped over on the side of the road and a truck with its nose kissing ...
