The W-The beginning

Here I am at the beginning of the adventure! We had a bus ride from Rio Grande to Puerto Natales, Chile, which took about 7 hours and we arrived tired but ready to get walkin'! The next day we went to rent gear in town and get a bus to Torres del Paine National Park. We planned to walk "The W," a hike that resembles the shape of the letter, hence the name. We heard from a lot of people that it was fun and a really pretty hike. Well, they failed to mention that it was also really hard! We learned that part on our own.
The lake that we would be walking around over the next 4 days. The color of the water was amazing! The water comes straight from the glaciers.
Camp Pehoe where we spent the first 2 nights. Can you spot our tent?
The mountians above Camp Pehoe. We are going to climb those to get to Glacier Grey.
Our first view of the glacier. Wow!
Levi making me a tasty drink from the glacier itself.
While I took a break Levi went down to the water front and brought me back a gift. Awww...
