The Patagonian weather is finally breaking. After days of settled conditions, the script has flipped: while patches of sun still linger, the peaks are now swaddled in cloud, and the wind has arrived with a vengeance. These are the strongest gusts we’ve felt in the 13 days since we arrived. A proper Patagonian welcome.

Very windy and cloudy day today. Cerro Torre was clagged in but Fitzroy range kept appearing out of the cloud, especially Aguja Poincenot 3002m, whose summit was often bathed in sunshine.

We did a short half day hike up some lower hills where we came across Condors and Guanaco. When the high hills are out because of the weather you can still have fun.

So glad I managed to leave the comfort of my sleeping bag this morning.

Another cracking day. Cerro Torre and Fitzroy prominent in the image.

This perfect weather has made us realize we need to go higher while we can. We have to take advantage of this window before the inevitable clouds and winds return. With the fine weather set to continue, this afternoon we'll pack for our first higher altitude adventure: an overnight bivouac on Loma del Pliegue Tumbado tomorrow

Very soon we head south to Patagonia. Been looking for software to record our TravelLog. I use 11ty for my sites but it's not for posting from mobiles. WordPress overly complex. Mastodon ... don't want to fill timeline with every post. Looked at micro.blog but settled on HTMLy which is self hosted, intuitive & simple.

Just starting to excited about heading back to Patagonia. Only 3 weeks to go until we head out and get back to scenes such as this from 2014 on the western side of the Cerro Torre massif. Better start making a packing list pronto.
