Patagonia: More Scenery

One of the best part of being in the mountains is the views you get of other mountains.

Facing west, sunset along the Cordillera Salto.  The river we crossed is at the base of those mountains.

View from the early days of the trip.

West, towards the Northern Icefields.

Patagonia... mountain range after mountain range.  Each of the three ridges here is a separate cordillera, or range.

Crystal clear night - a real treat in Patagonia.

And the sky.

Super long exposure sunset with the stars visible.

One of many jagged peaks around San Lorenzo.



Cordillera Salto with typical Patagonian weather.

The tortured face of the glacier.

Camping in the shadow of the glacier.


Another peak of Monte San Lorenzo through the clouds.


Our tent and Monte San Lorenzo reflected in glacial meltwater.

Over the glacier and towards the Pacific, with weather rolling in.

And a final sunset over the NOLS campo near Coyhaique.
