After hiking the O-Circuit of Torres del Paine, Chad headed back to Santiago for a few days of tourism, and I headed North to El Chaltén, Argentina, where I spent another 9 days hiking through Los Glaciares National Park and the Lago del Desierto Reserve, ultimately reaching Candelario Mancilla, where I ran into a bunch of people finishing or starting their journey along the Carretera Austral.

While the route was pretty crowded with tourists, hikers, and cyclists all the way up to Candelario Mancilla, the scenery nonetheless was spectacular:  the mountains (Mt. Fitz Roy and its siblings) and glaciers surrounding the Southern Patagonian Icefield never failed to disappoint.
