All OK in El Chalten.

Thanks for the concerns, but we did not feel a thing down here at the bottom of the continent. Weather continues to be beautiful with sunny skies, perfect temps, and just a slight breeze, which is so rare around here. This is the break in weather I could have used in Chile during NOLS. For now, I´m enjoying it. Took two amazing hikes over the last couple days to right up to Cerro Torre and then Fitz Roy. Cant wait to upload some photos. Amazing stuff.

El Chalten is the hip mountain town in Patagonia. People come from all over the world to climb here. Some find it so abundant in everything they want out of life that they just end up hangning around. Hanging around – that´s essentially what I´ve been doing over that last couple days. It´s tempting to stay, but I´ve got other things to see / other places to hang around, so I´m going to move on soon.

This is all just to say that things are good here…

SNAPSHOT – This is where I was stranded on Argentina´s Routa 40
