Argentina's youngest town, El Chalten, is the entrance to the north part of the Parque National Los Glaciares. It is dominated by the Fitzroy Massif.
It rained for three days in El Chalten. We hiked up to Laguna Torre and saw very little. Then as we were leaving the clouds lifted. Staying a week the next time!
