Patagonia: Torres del Paine area


The beginning of spectacular mountain scenery, Alps meet Lake District.


The backside of the Torres del Paine massif, with the elusive Torres below at the back.



Our first climb, up beside Lago Gray



Icebergs from the glacier at the top end, true colour in the sun, definitely not photo-shopped!



Our spectacular close-to-the-Torres picnic spot. You can almost see the bottoms of two of them through the freezing rain.


After walking down in gale-force gusts they were out again, with flying saucer clouds.
