Patagonia 2nd stop - El chalten

 We left El calafate early morning and  headed to El Chalten. It was a quick, around 3 hour bus ride. We only stayed for one night then head to Bariloche, a two day trip staying over night at a small town called Perito Moreno.
I guess it was good we only stayed one night in El Chalten. The weather was awful. Too cold and winds were around 60-70 mph. We did a few hour hike in the hopes to continue and see the top of Mt. Fitz roy but the clouds were low and the rain did not help. Bit we enjoyed what we were able to get to.
We got ready in the morning and took of on our first 13h bus ride to perito moreno along routa 40
