==Season 2025/26==
* ''' 2026-Jan-16 to 2026-Jan-18 / 3 Days / Hiking / 01, 08, 01 RR / Mor '''
General remarks:
Default state is wet feet as the mountain feels like one big swamp.
Trail finding is definitely the most challenging part of it.
Day 1: villa O'Higgins -> Camp {37H} [19.7/388]
Walking on Opt 1, trail finding is largest challenge after passing the puesto.
Tried to go into Opt 2 and Opt 2A but as I was about 750m into Opt 2 a sudden hail shower turned me back as I didn't want to walk on the exposed ridge of Opt 2A in strong winds and showers.
Day 2: Camp {37H} [19.7/388] -> Camp {37H-08} [4.6/337] (Bad Weather Option) -> Camp {37H} [19.7/388]
*Option 8*: until where camps are marked (around 4.6 km) it is walkable on a decent trail which does require more BB/CC than Opt1 but is okay. Exploration part seemed undoable or highly demanding. No apparent trail that goes up the ridge. Abundance of rock fall and overall poor quality rock. Very very steep and exposed face. Wind is a big factor especially as the trail faces West and most winds comes from W-NW meaning they hit you directly. I turned around after a few hundred metres as I figured it didn't worth the risk of exploring it alone.
It forced me to trace back to Opt 1 and miss the part of Laguna Verde. In the end, due to lack of food, motivation and overall low physical feeling I cut the journey short leaving room for the next time.
Day 3: Camp {37H} [19.7/388] -> Villa O'Higgins.
Easy stroll on decent trails back to VOH.
