Difficulty - 4/5
* Joined by Ohad for the roadwalk from Villa Cerro Castillo - thanks for the company! Hope you found your stove. Beautiful views of Cerro Castillo, Laguna Verde and Lago Alto. The camp at 32.0/700 is on private property, so we continued on to a flat spot on the river around 35km. There appeared to be good flat spots in the forest to the left of trail around 1km before 32.0.
* Timed our arrival to the Torres for a clear day. Took the ascent and descent (58.5km to 63.4) of the main pass slowly as it was covered in snow between knee to hip-height. Where possible we scrambled on the uncovered boulders to avoid post-holing. Took significant time. Variant D along the glacial lakes was nice, although it may require a bit more scrambling than RR. We met GPT hikers Bailey and Ed going NOBO on our ascent to the pass - a big thank you for the footsteps!
* The view of the Torres from the main Pass [61.9/1314] was great but the best viewpoint for us was from the lake by the Camp [63.4/995].
