Patagonia: Cerro Torre and Fitz Roy


For most of the week clouds and mist veiled the majestic peaks of Cerro Torre and Fitz Roy. But weather does not last forever. We took a pre-dawn hike to Laguna Capri and were greeted by breath taking views of Fitz Roy. At this altitude, the rain we got in El Chaltén left a light dusting of snow, the last of summer. On our final morning we returned to the Rio de Las Vueltas canyon, where I followed the shadow of Fitz Roy as it ran down Cerro Torre.
