* 23.01.23 - 24.01.23 / Anna & Christopher / SOBO, Catripulli - Reyehueico
Short and easy section!
From Pucón we took a bus a 19:30 to Catripulli. From there we hitchhiked to km 18 of the RR. We camped next to Estero Huililco (silky water).
The next accessible water source is the ford of Estero Huililco at km 23. The walking until the plateau is easy (dirt roads and good paths), no navigation issues at all.
Around Laguna Blanca there was still some clear water of the snowmelt. Here walking got a bit tougher due to the sand, but the plateau really is beautiful. After Laguna Blanca there is a good, visible path again until Laguna Azul. We camped at the Laguna and had the first rainy/stormy night.
Because of the bad weather we didn't climb the volcano the next day and went down directly. It's a good path the whole way. Around 4 km before Reyehueico we got a ride directly to Panguipulli :)
