We walked by this massive body of ice just before going over the John Garner Pass, which is the most feared section of the full circuit trek.  It looked as though it was going to fall on top of us.

This photos was taken about 15-20 minutes before we reached Campamento Chileno on our 8th day of our Torres del Paine full circuit trek. After 8 days of trekking arriving at our campsite started to become a true treat. We actually only stopped at Camapamento Chileno for a rest and continued onto to Campamento Torres for our last night of camping. The view from Chileno is amazing.

Cuernos del Paine are an impressive range of mountains that dominate a large part of the Torres del Paine landscape they can been seen through multiple trails during the main trek called the “W.”

This photos was taken while taking a rest at Paine Grande Campsite while making our way from Refugion Grey to Campamento Italiano.

On day nine of our trek we hiked to Las Torres look out point in the dark to wait for the sun to rise and light up the towers. It was the perfect ending to our visit to Torres Del Paine National Park.

The last day of our trek we hiked from Campamento Torres up to the Torres Lookout Point in the darkness to watch the sun come up and illuminate the towers. We were rewarded with the most beautiful sunrise we have every seen. It even beat any sunset we have ever seen. The colors were amazing it was surreal. It was the perfect ending to our nine day adventure at Torres del Paine National Park.

We were very lucky to have had great weather for seven out of the nine days during our trek. This photo was taken on our trail to Campamento Chileno. The views were amazing every day which made the strenuous hiking slightly more bearable.

At the top of the Valle del Frances hike there is a hidden path that leads further up the mountain. The trek is very icy and bit dangerous at times. There is a large platform rock at the top of the hike that rewards the adventurous folks who dare to make the climb with an amazing 360 view of breath taking scenery.
