Italiano to Campamento Los Cuernos

Trekking Day 7: Hurray no pack this morning! The day started with a side trail up into the French Valley so we could leave our packs behind. A 2.5 hour (each way) side trail that took us up into the valley. We felt much lighter on our feet but the incline still tired me out. We had heard lots of good things about the view but were not as impressed as other parts of the trail. Maybe it was over anticipation. Back at camp Italiano we took a 1 hour siesta before packing up and heading to Campamento Cuernos. We passed a remote rocky beach along the way that was very inviting… too bad the water was glacial run off. After 2.5 hours on the trail we arrived at camp. Another nice day. I was able to enjoy my third shower of the hike at Cuernos which was amazing. We cooked quick dinner in the food hall and enjoyed some beer and cards at the Refugio. Throughout the day we ran into many hikers we trekked with on the backside.Leer más
