A boat ride across Lago Pehoe, in front of the hotel, took
us to a lovely valley and a hike along iceberg-filled Lago Grey to Grey
Glacier, one of the "ends" of the world's third largest sheet of ice, the
Southern Patagonia Ice cap.

Enjoying our boat trip back down Lago Grey after hiking eight miles
up to the glacier. I'm not sure those life jackets would have done
much good if we'd fallen into that literally ice cold water. |
