Torres and me

Torres del Paine is the most famous park in Patagonia and for good reason.  There are number of amazing natural formations and glaciers in the area, as well as a great trail, camping, and lodge infrastructure.

There are two options for hiking Torres.  The first is to do a relatively easy 3 day hike around the front part called the 'W' that just hits the high points..  The other is to do a 7-9 day hike around the grand circuit.  Which do you think Adam and I chose?

The first day we had great weather so we decided to do a day hike up to the park namesake, the Torres (towers).  As you can see, we hike slower than the weather.
