Itinerary

Full Day

We will drive early in the morning to “Mosquito” creek (20km), from there we´ll start the ascent trough the lenga forest. In about 1h we´ll reach the snow ( usually above the tree line ), and continue the ascent with the skis. There are different options on the ascent, depending on the weather and snow conditions, we can choose between climbing the main summit (1800m) or the “Mosquito” summit.
From either summit you can have great views of Fitz Roy in a clear day!

The vertical gain is 1200m, but most times is possible to do 2 or 3 descents of the upper section in one day.

Note:

Our Mountain Guides will have the final call to modify either partially or totally any program when safety conditions require.
