Torres del Paine! (Part 3: photos)

Days 1 and 2. Someday I will learn how to take photos of mountains against bright cloudy skies without having the one disappear into the other. 

Crazy peaks with reflections, from the catamaran. The Cuernos
are on the right.

On the trail to Italiano.

How many times must a tree branch bend, before it grows to the side?
The answer, my friends, is blowin' in the unremitting patagonian gale-force wind.
Note, there was no wind blowing when this was taken.

The freakily still dark-blue lake, with Cuernos in the background.

At the mirador of the Valle del Frances.

Glaciar Frances, from the mirador.

View from the mirador. Much sunnier away down there.

Swimmin' hole.

Ye olde tent, spectacularly situated, at
Refugio Los Cuernos.
