I have been slacking a little but with updating my blog as of late. I have been traveling, a lot. Last month with Rich (a friend from Pittsburgh) I went north along the Carreterra Austral, to the Puyhuapi hot springs, Quelat National Park, Chalten, Parque Pumalin, FUTALEUFU, crossed into Argentina and drove further north to Trevelin, Esquel, and El Bolson before doubling back and driving back south in Argentina and crossing back into Chile through Los Antiguos and Chile Chico. We drive back to the Careterra Austral along one of the most beautiful stretched of road I have ever been on, visited the Confluencia (again) and then back to Coyahaique. I promise more writing to come but for now a few picts. Check the link to Picassa on the right for a whole bunch more.
Right now I am on the road again. Jenna and Nick (friends from CT/CO) are here and this time we are in the middle of a trip south. We crossed from Coyhaique directly into Argentina and down Ruta 40 (miles and mils and miles of pampa and only pampa) to El Chalten / Fitz Roy. We are currently in El Calafate / Los Glaciares Nat Park and tomorrow we are off to Puerto Natales / Torres del Paine Nat Park then back north again along Ruta 40 before crossing back into Chile onto Careterra Austral ending once again, back home in Coyahique. Pictures and more stories to come.
