Leaving Eolo for a few days, we travel by boat to go to Cristina Estancia. This is where Yvon Chouinard fell in love with Patagonia and would come here to stay.
The Upsala glacier is here.
It is windy and rainy (as most of Patagonia always is). We went on a 9
mile hike to see the Glacier, and saw many fossils embedded in the
rocks as we hiked thru the moraine.
The following day Scott and I
took a guide for a 2 hour horse ride to a lake to fly fish and have
lunch. It was really fun. Then we took the boat back to our car at
Eolo and drove to El Calafate for the night before flying to Iguazu
Falls.
