Just heard from Tye and the Patagonia Team. The trekkers put in a long day hiking along the Grey Glacier yesterday, where they were rewarded with “spectacular, incredible, awesome views”. Hung out with some icebergs this morning while waiting for the boat to take them across Lago Grey, then after another short hike to a lookout point at Mount Ferrier, hopped a ride back to Natales. An absolutely perfect day, one of many they enjoyed all week.
And now the trekking is done, all that’s left is some showers, shopping and a nice dinner in Natales tonight. The gang takes a drive to Punta tomorrow, and from there will prepare to catch flights back home.
