El Calafate to El Chalten - helllooo sun and slight tail wind!

 

 

Anna F cycling in typical Patagonian landscape towards Chalten. In shorts! The better weather meant that we covered the 200-odd kilometers in two and a bit days which was great. The scenery on the way there made for our best riding days so far, getting great views of lakes and mountains.

Anna F and bikes on a hot day.The long top is to protect from sunburn, of course it was too little, too late. Mt Fitzroy is very faintly in the very distant background.

The road. As you can probably imagine discreet roadside camping locations are few and far between here. Now we no longer try and hide, this place is very safe and we are constantly getting waved at.

Not really our most favourite sign. But, hey, this day there was no wind and no trees. Maybe the sign blew here from further south.
