Los Glaciares National Park has some great trailhead signs.
The trail quickly climbs out of El Chaltén on another beautiful morning. I really could handle living here.
We quickly get our first views of the jagged Cerro Torre peak on the left, with the Fitz Roy massif closer on the right.
Walking up the meadow with a great view of Glacier Grande and Cerro Torre.
The trail then winds through a gorgeous Lenga forest.

The trail then follows Rio Fitz Roy for a ways. The water is completely milky white from all the glacial runoff.
A nice path, followed by a steep climb up the moraine, almost to the lake.

Dad and I at Laguna Torre. Two days in a row of absolutely world class photo spots. We need to celebrate birthdays like this more often!

Heading down now with Cerro Torre at our backs. This area had a bad fire about 6 years ago and is still recovering.

Looking down the canyon cut by Rio Fitz Roy.

The trail gets a little technical in places.
Almost down now. We've been blessed with yet another day of perfect weather.
Made it! Another unforgettable Patagonia trek in the books.
