Met up with Alex and Rhonda and got a taxi to view the Mereno Glacier in the Parque Nacional Los Glaciers.
A wonderful sight, seeing the 60metre towers of ice spread across the icy lake. Even more spectacular was when huge parts of the glaciers crashing into the waters below. The glacier is the only advancing glacier in the world whilst all the rest are recedeing. Although Al Gore did his facts a bit mixed up here!
Spent a while listening to the glacier crack and rumble and see more sections of ice plumbet into the water.
Spent the evening getting my stuff together for my 4 day trek in the Torres Del Paine. Whilst in El Calafate I've been staying at the America Del Sur. A fantastic hostel which I would recommend to anyone. Great place, great views and great staff.
