Mount Fitz Roy

Today we woke up to clear sunny skies and finally, a view of Fitz Roy! It was amazing! It was like Christmas morning, looking outside, realizing what we had, trying to get shoes on and our camera´s in hand. We had a pre-planned hike, and after snapping afew quickies, we grabbed our gear and headed out. It was a long day, we hiked along the Lago Capri trail and arrived at the lago in about an hour and a half. We were rewarded with amazing views of Fitz Roy all day. We then hiked down to Laguna Madre, ate lunch, and hiked down to Laguna Hija where we paused on the shore. We then hiked down and met the Laguna Torre trail and that led us down back to town. I know these trail names mean nothing to you, but if you look it up, maybe it will help. idk. Anyhow, we hiked a long ways and ended up getting back a little after 5 pm. Now we´re uploading photos and planning our exit from Chalten. Probably we´ll leave on leaving town monday I think. We´ve got to get supplies, food, and other things and we´ll probably have to wait for a ferry across Lago O´higgins until next saturday. We´ll see how things go. Ok I´m out, hopefully you enjoy the entry and the photos, chao.
