Hey Werner, got to share the rope with Bud from your team. Also, Josie and I lived in the same hostel. Good guys!
Few pictures of our steak after climbing St. Exupery, Bud climbing and us on a good ledge halfway up the route. Literally 48 hours after I arrived in Buenos Aires. Timing was crazy...

Very Sweeeet stuff, Vitaly! Patagonia is a special place to be sure. Probably it wont happen, but I hope one day I might get to go down there. I hope you can find the time to put up a TR.

Patagonia is a great place to visit no matter if you are a hiker, climber, noob, expert or something in between. It is great for those on the budget. There are hostels available for less than 200$ a month. Food is cheap unless you want to eat like a king. Like the stake dinner I posted above was the most expensive thing I ordered while in Argentina, it was 175 pesos as I remember, with exchange rate of 12 pesos for 1 dollar (in town). So celebratory dinner for under 15$. Box of instant oatmeal for 4-6 breakfasts was 20 pesos. Vegetables and fruits are fairly cheap usually, unless you want to get an avocado. There is a guy who sells 12 empinadas for 90 pesos. I mean I have no idea how he makes money...flight (one way) was 618$ (I looked for a few days a month in advance).
Pretty much anyone who likes beautiful places should go visit. If you like to travel there is no reason not to. It wasn't hard to get around without speaking Spanish. Will have to learn and practice for the next trip though, would love to communicate and understand the Spanish only speaking people.

Fantastic! The steak reminds me. I was a vegetarian for a while. When I booked Argentina, I started eating steak to "train" for it, LOL.

Totally agree! I went twice and had fantastic times. The fishing is really good as well!

It was asked on the what did you climb today thread and now I will ask it here,
What was the cause of your year off?
Mine was stupid soloing ice after midnight above a parking lot on thiry feet of rubble!!
Worse than choss! Were you under going a corrective, and therefore nobody's bees wax !
Any way it is great to see you tied in and smiling and on Ice to boot!
Climb on Anita!!

Yeah I had surgery last March to lengthen my right leg.
First day on ice was pretty pathetic. Maybe more next weekend!
