| Hiking on a Glacier in Patagonia. |
Publicado el 19 de Agosto de 2001, por Clifford Krauss. |
THIS was the Patagonia I had seen in all the documentaries, only better. A frosty wind blew into our faces as our group of 20 backpacking tourists climbed across ledges of sharp-edged ice on the vast Perito Moreno glacier crawling down South America's continental ice shelf.

Publicado el 28 de Octubre de 2001 por Julián Varsavsky |
La larga excursión que parte de El Chaltén conocida como Hielo Continental es un viaje de 6 días por un mundo blanco donde se duerme en iglú semienterrado en la nieve. Un exigente trekking de aventuras que se encuentra entre los más asombrosos del mundo entero..

| Patagonia... Aventura total.
|
Publicado en Enero de 2001 |
A cada instante reconfirmábamos la importancia de la compañia de un guía de montaña, quién no sólo nos sirvió para sentirnos seguros y llegar placenteramente a destino, sino para comprender lo fragil del lugar, la imortancia de nuestro cuidado y cómo preservarlo.

Quien ha vivido este amanecer, sin duda se asumirá como un privilegiado, al igual que muchos franceses, italianos, alemanes y norteamericanos que cruzan de hemisferio para apreciar lo que nosotros tenemos tan cerca.

| Hielos Continentales. Conquista Blanca

Publicado el 28 de Diciembre de 1996 |
[...] Es "navegar" con los pies sobre un mar congelado, una planicie helada desde donde se observa la cara oeste del cerro Fitz Roy y donde no hay ninguna otra especie que tu propio cuerpo en medio de la nieve, el viento y el hielo. Cuando el tiempo es despejado, el sol bendice al hielo y se puede caminar hasta en remera y regresar con la piel tostada.

Testimonios
"We loved the trip - the hikes were beautiful, each in different ways. The camping was great - the sites, the beauty, some of the patagonian winds and the people (several of whom I am still in contact with). The staff was always helpful and warm and friendly and knowledgeable. One needs only to want to travel, love the outdoors, and he/she won't be disappointed!"

"Patagonia Adventure Trip was an incredible experience. The company was very flexible to work with and did a tremendous job tailoring our trip to be the experience we wanted. The guides were all excellent and the scenery was spectacular. My friend Keith really enjoyed all the beautiful Argentine women that were also on the trip. And my friends Kate and Ellen more than enjoyed the scenery of the good looking guides leading them up the mountains."

"In February 2001 I spent 8 days in the Torres del Paine park with 15 other people camping and trekking with Oscar Pandolfi as our guide. I often think of the trip because of the shear beauty of the area, the great variability of the weather and the diversity of the scenery. We hiked in valleys, over rock falls and up to a huge glacier with surprisingly blue icebergs calving off of it. Each day was a new adventure.
I attribute much of the success of the trip to our guide, Oscar, who was very knowledgeable about the fauna and flora of the area and who made sure that we were well provided for and enjoyed ourselves as a group during meals and on the trail. I highly recommend a trip to Patagonia for anyone who would like a unique trekking experience."

"The Patagonia trip was a great trip!!! I enjoyed all aspects of the trip. Words and photographs are inadequate to describe Patagonia. Patagonia is a place to be experienced. I feel privileged to have had the chance to experience it with you, as our guide, and the rest of our group. I particularly appreciated your knowledge of the local flora and await the publishing of your book. I appreciated the patience, humor, and expertise that you demonstrated. As well, I appreciated all the hard work that you and the boys (don't tell Marianne that I used that word) did for us. I appreciated the diversity of our group. I enjoyed getting to meet everyone. John and I are going to go up Mt. Whitney in October.
I thought the amount of hiking that we did was just right. It wasn't too short and it wasn't too long. It was nice to come to the refreshment tent after a day's hike and have a nice, cold Pisco Sour. The scenery was just amazing. And your ability to hold off the rain was incredible. All in all, I thought it was a very, very special trip."

"I took a trip with Oscar's company in February, 2001. I had a marvelous time. The weather cooperated (thank goodness), and we had several wonderful days of hiking. He structured the trip so that all people could hike at their own pace, and not feel left behind, or could ahead and have fun at their own pace. It was great to know that your pace, for that day, could always be accomodated. In addition, it was wonderful to come home to meals that we all enjoyed. I had a super time, and would definitely recommend Oscar's trip to a friend!"

"Un día de febrero partí desde aeroparque rumbo a la provincia de Santa Cruz. Gabriel, quiero agradecerte toda esa experiencia inolvidable que durante 12 días compartí con todo el grupo, que me permitió conocer y comenzar a amar esa región de nuestra Patagonia. Quería tomarme unas vacaciones distintas a las de todos los años, viajar a un lugar diferente donde encontrar sosiego, paz y aventuras y por suerte encontré eso y mucho más, encontré un grupo de gente maravillosa, remacanuda, cordial. Espero que sigan con ese trabajo tan lindo de hacer conocer nuestra Patagonia."
