Chalten to Chile's Carretera Austral and back
... a scruffy looking unpleasant man on the bar begrudgingly said he could sell us 20 litres of petrol if we really want but at roughly twice the usual price. I kind of wonder if I’d gone in and asked for Diesel, if I’d have got the exact same reply but in reverse! So we have 20 litres on the roof, with this guy’s exorbitant 20 litres, given the head wind we are driving into with our enormous roofrack, we should be able to get 150km ...
