My Travels

This is a day by day journal, so in the future I can look back and reflect on my experiences and those I have shared them with.

Trekking on the Viedma Glacier

NEW ZEALAND | Thursday, 26 February 2009 | Views [109]

Not having seen a glacier up close we (alex, rhonda and me) booked ourselves on day excursion to the Viedma glacier just 45 mins from El Chalten.  It was great. After a short boat trip and a brief scramble over the terminal morraine,  we donned our crampons and explored the glacier led by our tour guides. It was a great experience seeing the vast crevices, ice caves, and holes in the ice. The day was ended by having a Baileys with ice from the glacier.
