Pictures from the South
So I ran out of time and didn´t get the chance to do the write up I wanted to about my trip down south so you´ll have to settle for my previous post (the journal). Below I will post some pictures, video, and commentary though if that helps.
Unfortunately I can´t seem to download the videos off of my site, which means im going to need another way to embed them within the blog. Until I figure that out, I have all the videos (with one notable exception) a caption, so just go into my photos and look under the ¨Patagonia¨ album. I´d recommend perusing all the photos but a 150 can be quite daunting. There´s only about 10 videos or so and they all have titles so you can pick them out. Here´s a sampling of the photos:
Let´s start with some of my more artistic pictures:
Title: Achilles
This my favorite picture of my trip, and perhaps from the entire year. The rolled up cigarette, bloody hand, and knarled vagabond look just empitomizes the gaucho.
Sand and Water
Comment: it always seemed like the clouds hung really low in the sky
House and Water pump (i realize im not getting any creativity points for the names here)
A year´s worth of work
Horseplay
dinner drying
THE VACATION PART
The glaciar builds a bride once or twice a year and actually damns up part of the lake
A 100 ft tall and miles long this glaciar is the most popular since its the most stable. The biggest one is about 50 miles away and is over 1000 ft tall.
Not my videos as my camera was too busted to film them, but you get the idea:
I actually befriended a tour guide so got to go with her for free. It was amazing to see her and her guide friends, who must have seen this hundreds of times (she´d been doing it for five years) still jump up and rush to the edge to see what was happening whenever you hear a big crack
Me in Chalten, working my way up Fitz Roy hill (hill my ass, 2500 ft)
Me at the summit, there was one crazy bastard who was actually swimming in that lake.
