Now...waiting for snow..

Summer is gone, Autum is beggining.... leaves are falling, but ...now we can not wait to ski
again....
Last year we went to Alaska in April, so winter was long enough ...
This year our patience to see snow will grow!!

La Buitrera, Canyon, Patagonia

Piedra Parada and La Buitrera near esquel are one of the highlights of sport climbing in Northern Patagonia.

Maybe , Esquel is the Southern limit of Patagonia, where starts the roaring 40ºss...

Feb- April... what was happening!

Hello, always curious to see if somebody reads our blog or not,
but any way we update it once in a while to show little bit about
what is going on with Andescross.com, so this way our new and old guests can follow up some adventures.
This Feb- March were incredible warm and hot, so was not easy to seat in front computer to update blog
February - March were great for climbing.
We climbed in Frey with Dave, a friend from a little town near Aspen, CO called Carbondale,
in VAlle Encantado. We went to Piedra Parada near Esquel, Patagonia.
My partner Walter taught some mountaineering courses, how to rock climb multipitch, how to do Glacier rescue and few other things to be safe in the mountains.
Also, did some "Hut to Hut mountain Trek over the Northern Patagonian Andes" and other treks over the Northern Patagonian ridges...
Maybe too many words... enjoy the pics below better than words!
