==Season 2025/26==
'''2026-Jan-27 to 2026-Jan-28 / 1.5 days / Hiking / SOBO / RR, OH-1A, OH-2, Variant C / Emily'''
I hiked a portion of GPT9 to ~35.5km before returning to Abanico due to injury. Some points of note
* I spoke to the rangers at the park entry (-37.39823, -71.43959). They advised that the park trails (including Sierra Velluda, RR) would reopen on 29/1, following closures for fire risk. They were also able to call other CONAF rangers to confirm the status of the fire near Trapa Trapa; as of 27/1, it was okay to pass. They scanned my ticket here which I purchased beforehand (6.000clp), though I got the impression they wouldn’t have asked if I hadn’t brought it up. There was wifi here too.
* I took OH-1A and OH-2 given the Sierra Velluda closure. I didn’t find these particularly enjoyable - very exposed and dusty. OH-2 had no shade or water besides the lake, which has quite a bit of sediment. The viewpoint at 09-02 [9.1/1409] is nice, but there’s no refuge as marked. I had no luck hitching SOBO.
* I camped at -37.343218, -71.799532, across the river along the RR around ~29.5km. Flat, not sheltered but somewhat protected by the gully. In the morning I cut across to the dirt track on the OSM to connect with Variant C.
* I was able to hitch in the morning NOBO to Antuco with a local freight driver - super friendly, he noted he’s met several GPT hikers over the years.
