We woke up to a gorgeous, still a bit chilly, but very sunny day today, perfect timing for our stay in El Chalten and a days easy trekking to view the Fitzroy Mountain range. There were numerous trails we could have hiked straight from our campsite, a small group of us chose to hike a 20km route there and back past Mirador Fitzroy (mount Fitzroy viewpoint) to mirador Glacier Piedras Blanca's. Nigel and Lorraine chose to do the steep last section up to Laguna du los Tres, the lake was still frozen over at the top though and covered in snow. The rest of us, Katie, Debra, Ross, Mike and I, continued along an easy route to the glacier viewpoint. It was a fantastic day and the weather couldn't have been more perfect.
In the evening we joined Vikki, Eoin and Oli for a pizza at a very popular restaurant, people were waiting for tables by the time we left, then went for a drink at what turned out to be a very expensive bar, £15 for two drinks!
Lots of photos, the scenery was just stunning.
