Perito Moreno Glacier

We hop onto ANOTHER bus and after picking up tourists from all over town we head North to the Los Glaciares National Park.

As we descend into the national park we marvel at the size of the massive glacier in front of us. The Perito Merono Glacier is upto 30km long and 5km with an average height of 70m above the water and 180m below. The Glacier can grow by upto 2m in length per day but its size is limited as it pushes against the banks and breaks off into the lake below.

After a pictureque walk and Suki taking photos like the paparazzi at the logies we board a catarman that takes us along the river to the southern face of the glacier. A short hike later with our spiky feet (crampons) we start to trek along the glacier learning about its different characterisics and viewing the deep sinkholes that form from the streams of melting ice.

At the end orlf our trek our group gathers on the glacier for a well earned whisky on the rocks (glacier ice).

Back at our hostel Suki whips us ravioli and we settle in for the Mayweather Vs Pacquaio fight!Read more
