This is a short section featuring river crossings, Araucaria forests, and stunning views as you ascend to the pass. From Guallalí to the ford [14.3/1100], follow the MR instead of the TL as indicated in the track files. The hot springs [6.6/991] are in the middle of a pasture and unfortunately were full of cow manure, so there was no Christmas bath. The ford at [10.6/1059] could be crossed with dry feet. The ford at [24.3/1688] could also be bypassed a few meters upstream by jumping from stone to stone, again keeping feet dry. Other fords were crossed in the usual manner.
The ascent to the highest point of this section was steep but comfortable. We spent the night on the left bank of a creek at Camp [26.1/1967] under the final elevation to the pass. It's a beautiful spot with a great view.
On the second day, we climbed into the pass [27.6/1974]. The southern side still had significant snow, but the slope was not too steep, and the surface was smooth, allowing for a safe slide down 420 vertical meters to where the snow ended.
The next part followed a riverbed bordered by steep slopes. For a while, we hopped back and forth between the banks before deciding to wade through the stream. We rejoined the TL, which transitioned into MR near approximately (-38.1333167, -71.0920333), even though it’s still marked as TL in the track files.
