From Hosteria Las Torres to Campamiento Torres up the Valle Ascencio

First we encounter rain until at a higher altitude it turns into as snowstorm!

We pitch our tents in a small forest, which turns out to be smart: In the morning everything was covered in snow but the campground (protected by the trees!)

We start walking towards the basecamp of the "Torres"

Steep Torres have in clouds rising behind the nicely colored laguna

Colin drinking water, which is clean (and cold) for drinking!

Strangely shaped trees show proof of the harsh climate and the persisting strong winds

Our "campground" and cooking utensils before breaking camp in the suddenly nice morning

Walking along Lago Nordenskold

Fairytale Forest up in the "Valle del Francais"

Towards Campamiento Britanico

Suspension bridge to get across Rio del Frances

Walking along Lago Grey towards "Glaciar Grey":
Floating ice from the glaciar is drifting away with the force of the powerful winds blowing from the glaciar.

First glimpse of the huge glaciar:
The strong wind makes it even tough to take a picture without being blown off the cliffs!

Last (and closest) lookout facing the glaciar
