• Final viewpoint on red trail

    We continued across a small wooden bridge to the final viewpoint on the red trail. We had managed to do the full trail in less than 30 min, so we felt confident of doing the yellow trail as well. From this viewpoint as well, we could see the glacier and the Lago del Desierto. After stopping for a few minutes, we started our descent. When we reached back at the 1st viewpoint, we still couldn't see the girls so we presumed that they were coming slowly sinve they had wanted to do only the red trail. We continued further down. Soon Hristo lead by quite many meters ahead of me. In the distance, I saw the girls in the forest a bit away from the trail. Hristo stopped briefly and continued further. When I reached that spot, the girls had reached very near the trail and Melinda was limping and Maria was helping her. On asking, they told that Melinda had slipped and twisted her ankle. I stopped for a while but they told me to continue since I couldn't anyway help with anything more. They were planning to walk slowly back to the starting point and Melinda felt comfortable enough to be sure she will be able to walk with the branch support they had picked up from the forest.Read more
