Capillas de Marmol- Puerto Rio Tranquilo

Arrived in Puerto Rio Tranquilo at 11, found a camp site, did shop for the holidays, washed clothes, and organized a tour by boat to the Capillas de Marmol for the afternoon.  2,5hours to different sights around the lake.

As the wind blows...

The first 40km were quite demanding. Very ugly gravel, a lot of steep ascents ( and with washboard the descents are not much better) and a heavy headwind. Made it to a farm with camping and had cows and horses and chicken around my tent. Cool when the wind was blowing, got better by turning south. 

Snow - winter is coming

A day with fast changing weather, 15min sunshine, then rain and wind and on 1100m there was very strong winds and snow coming down. I changed my jacket about five times. Famous switchback curves down to Villa Cerro Castillo. A place with a view.
