January 23, Monday – Torres Del Paine, Chile

This morning was overcast and a bit damp looking but we headed out anyway for a hike on Hunter's Trail.  

Along the way we saw more flamingos...this time a bit closer.


Hunter's Trail was mainly a walk through the steppes and rolling moraines at the foot to the Paine Mountains. 




The walk took us to a shallow cave that had petroglyphs from the original indigenous people.  

A light drizzle started not long after we left the vehicle and kept up for most of the walk.  We saw a number of guanacos on the trail and a few birds but not much else.  

The guide said that pumas tended to hunker down during rainy weather so we didn’t see any.  It started to clear a bit just as we got to the van.


We were back at the hotel for lunch time and took the afternoon off.  Just a lazy day.
