Hiking below Fitz Roy: Lago del los Tres
The video has the story behind the trailwork done that has made this hike enjoyable and kept erosion from ruining an amazing access point to these mountains. Their hard work certainly paid off.
Below are photos from our hike on the trail in February 2012:
A little extra
Starting the day a little extra early to get in a ski tour on the best snow of the season before work was worth it.

Q: What makes a great designer?
A: It is so important to be light on your feet, inquisitive and interested in being wrong. You have that wonderful fascination with the what if questions, but you also need absolute focus and a keen insight into the context and what is important - that is really terribly important. Its about contradictions you have to navigate.
