Hiking to Cerro Torre

The toothy peak of Cerro Torre beckoned us onwards for a day walk to the lake at the base of the mountain.  The weather was still perfect and it was a glorious day for a walk.

Cerro Torre is just over 3,000m, rising sharply up from the lake at 650m.  It is huge and imposing, but it seems almost impossible to judge it's true height from underneath it.  We could only imagine how hard it would be to climb.

Great day for a walk


More glacial ice!



Back in town the last rays of the sun shine on Cerro Fitz Roy
