Cambios

During the hike we had a few moments of doubt because the route disappeared several times in impenetrable forest. But we always managed to find passable trail even if it meant returning a day’s hike. After about half the trail I became a bit concerned that we may run out of time before reaching our goal. But we kept going with a steady pace without worrying too much.

On February 23, 2014 we finally arrived again in Coñaripe were we set out a 104 days before. Our GPS indicated summed up roughly hiked 1'600 km hiked and 50'000 m climbed. We actually walked on 80 days with the remaining time used to resupply, rest and to travel from the end of section 16 to the start of section 1.

The now published trail eliminates Between December 18, 2014 and February 9, 2015 we returned to the seek detours Greater Patagonian Trail and refined sections 3, 10 and 11 and can be hiked by any experienced hiker with sufficient endurance most of section 17 and 18 to extend the proper equipmenttrail further south. And for the years to come we plan more hikes and packraft trips to extend the trail even further.
