A climber huddles in a sleeping bag during a bivouac on a ledge on the north col of Cerro Fitz Roy, with Cerro Loma Blanca and Cerro Piramide rising from the Southern Continental Icecap in the distance, Argentine Patagonia. Cerro Fitz Roy is one of the most massive peaks in the Southern Andes, and is a sought after summit by the world's top alpinists. It was named in honor of the captain of Darwin's ship, the Beagle, Captain Robert FitzRoy, who explored the region. The indigenous name for the peak is Chalten, which means "smoking mountain".
