Cambios

Before publishing the trail I have long considered if publishing may have also negative consequences for the affected area. I personally do not see that this trail will become overun like in example "Torres del Paine". The trail is simply too long and demanding to attract large crowds. And even if a larger number of hikers seeks this challange they will be distribute over a rather long trail. The principle risk of publishing this trail is that this attracts irresponsible people that litter and don't have the necessary care when making camp fires. This may indeed cause severe damage and destruction. To promote a responsible behaviour I plead that all hikers respect the [[#Code of Conduct|Code of Conduct]] of the trail.
