Cave of the Mastodon, outside of the park. Approaching the park.
First glance at the Peine massive, at Laguna Armaga. The Torres in the mist, at Laguna Amarga.
The weather cleared up a little bit, and we got a first impression of the Torres. At the base camp, looking at the Torres.
 
day 1
 
Ascending to Mirador Las Torres, looking back at the Eco Camp. Strange clouds that form only at wind speeds above 200 km/h.
Looking along Vale Ascancio. The first glaciers in Vale Ascancio.
It is already late in the season for the Firebush. At Mirador Las Torres, at last.
The Torres at better weather conditions. On the way back to the base camp.
 
day 2
 
Morning at the base camp. Now the Torres appear without any clouds. Looking at Laguna Cebolla (the onion).
We are approaching Lago Peine. Marguerites everywhere.
 
day 2-3
 
Approaching our night camp at Lago Paine. Taking a nap at Lago Paine. Meanwhile, our luggage is overtaking us.
