Fitz Roy (February 2001)

Return to my mountaineering/trekking/travel webpage

 

In February 2001, immediately after having climbed Aconcagua, I traveled (through Chile) to El Chalten in Argentinean Patagonia and spent a week hiking in the area of Mount Fitz Roy: Laguna Torre, Camp Poincenot, Laguna de los Tres, Piedra del Fraile. This spectacular mountain range is a major attraction for climbers and hikers. Although it is well-known for its bad weather, I was lucky and enjoyed mostly sunny days, but with strong winds.
