Some Pix from Torres del Paine

Our trusty wagon......we were very glad to have the 4x4 capabilities! It was snowy and icy on the path several times and held five adults plus luggage pretty comfortably for the most part. 

Sunrise over our first hotel in the park - Los Torres

My companions contemplating the Torres del Paine (the Towers of Paine) over Lago Azul. What you don't know is that this picture is taken post pee-in-the-woods - they all just looked so cute there staring out at the mountains giving me some privacy! 

The Paine massif, from just outside the park on the southern end. 

Ponies! 

Taryn, Laura and I on an early morning hike to see the sunrise over glacier grey.

Foxy! 

Guanaco! A relative of the Llama. We stopped at pretty much every Guanaco we saw, until we saw around a thousand in one spot so we didn't stop so much after that.
