Photos: Part I of the ice cap traverse
Posting photos has become much more complicated than hoped ... it's what I like to refer to as the "Argentina factor." At one place the Internet is too slow to handle photos, at the next place there are no USB ports, etc., etc. "Asi es." Translated that means, "so it is."
Another great example of the "Argentina factor" is the fact that there has been no gasoline for cars available in El Chalten for two days, and now they're saying it will be at least another two days before any arrives. Our guide, Jorge, put my parents and I on a bus to get back to El Calafate, so that we can make our transfer to Puerto Natales ... but Jorge and Luciana (our other guide) are stuck in El Chalten unless they can find enough friends who can give them a few liters of diesel to get them to the closest town, 130 km away.
So here are the fruits of a few days worth of work ... five photos ... that I'm calling Part I of the ice cap traverse. With any luck, Part II will be up by tomorrow. Enjoy!
