General notes -
Incredibly beautiful section
Killed at least 100 horse flies
When entering Chile to bariloche they asked how long i intended to stay in Argentina. I said 5 days. I read a previous comment saying that you can stay for less but not more than the time you say you intend to stay in Argentina. So I would recommend giving yourself more time maybe
Costs - bus to trail head, camping at Refugio (10,500 ars), bus to Puerto varas (2000 CLP,)
Difficulty - 3/5
Attractiveness - 5/5
Day 1
Bariloche felt like a mega city compared to everywhere else
Bus to Colonia suzia pay with card number 10.
Started after noon. Trail was great up until Launga Negra
First ford is a bridge. All the fords were okay. Mostly rock hops, there's a bridge or calf height
I camped on the pass after cab Laguna. The ascent had cairns going in multiple directions but mostly upwards.
Camp 1
Pass {21-03} [28.0/1815]. No water, heaps of flat ground, not really wind protected
Day 2 - Option 2A Refugio otto meiling
I forgot the pass but I missed the cairns for one of the descents and had to do a awkward down climb
The trail from pampa Linda to the top was pretty nice. I found some water along the way. This was between the ford (a bridge) and the steep incline where the trail starts and road finishes. The ford/ bridge had murky water
Camp 2
Refugio otto meiling
Nice spot, heaps of people. I didn't reserve my camping. The person who checked me in recommended people reserve their campsites or if you are staying inside. There's water here.
Day 3 - option 2B Refugio Viejo
Wifi was working okay for me at pampa Linda.
I got my Argentina exit stamp in pampa Linda.
After crossing into Chile the Carabineros were nice, I didn't check my bag for food, I didn't smuggle anything in. There's water here, tables and camping. They wanted me to check in after camping at the
Camp 3
Refugio Viejo - cowboy camped past the Refugio Viejo. There were about 6 people up there. Agree with a previous comment to get closer to the cliff and watch the glacier. Snow melt for water.
Day 4
Checked in with the Carabineros
Big day walking through the forest in the heat wave. Thankful a lot of shade and water. I didn't see anyone until the end of the day
Camp 4
Lago Cayute [63.6/233]. Water from the lake, sheltered. Very busy on the weekend.
Day 5
Walked to cochamo, caught the bus to Puerto varas.
