Adventure Patagonia 2015

Another beautiful day for Torres del Paine!! Jurgen and Ralf stop for a photo The whole gang lined up after lunch- ready to head on down the road... On the bridge to Hosteria Pehoe for lunch On the bridge crossing Lago General Carrera- the largest lake in Chile Sunset at the bottom of Chile- Puerto Natales. My old stomping grounds!! Looking back on our rest day hotel: Hacienda Tres Lagos- a truly magical place to spend a couple of nights! Ian Brown trying was trying to pull the ox cart at Estancia La Angustura- no luck... Here's my attempt at getting into the group picture outside of El Chalten... Another spectacular day of riding in the Argentine Patagonia. Fitz Roy in the background On the way to Lago del Desierto- rough road, but worth it! Mark and the guys enjoying the view. Ralf riding The "Gang" leaving El Chalten The cloud cover actually feels good- not so much stong sunshine. Here we are at the Perito Morreno Glacier near El Calafate. In Argentina we ate some great steaks at a roadside establishment that also served Butch Cassidy!! (different wait staff... ) And here we are at Butch Cassidy's hideout in Cholila, Argentina! Typical Chilean Patagonia town. Note: NO RAIN!!! Our first boarder crossing went over without a hitch Still no rain!! Outside of Puyuhuapi, almost unheard of. Ian Brown from New Zealand just saw Butch Cassidy's ghost in the Museum bathroom. Tom from Canada is loving his first Edelweiss tour! Looking out over the lakes near the Northern Patagonian Ice Fields- on our rest day in Hacienda Tres Lagos No, we didn't fly to the Carrabien for our rest day... Jurgen and Roland paddling into one of the bays at Lago Negro
