Hi all, we arrived at Puerto San Julian with some setbacks, but good. We come from many backgrounds visiting ports, ports that motivate penetrate increasingly Patagonian history. The desired output accompanied by the boys did the Boat and friends of the foundation know our home. The car horns sounded from the shore and the north wind brought us all up to the Penguin Island, home of Rockhopper penguins who unfortunately could not see. The normal starting stage, until the second day ... The complication was of course the wind but came three things, the shallow, pop rocks and algae.
The setting out of Desire comes with lots of waves breaking on all sides when the tide is low and many offshore islands that emerge.
is not as simple to navigate the area if all conditions are against it. The disadvantages were finishing the second day of rowing when the wind was right against only 60 km an hour between algae and surrounded by a sandbank. The exit to the beach was very hard after a few hours of paddling in place with the blades (oars) engaged with the seaweed kelp. Our enemy, the great Traetormentas mounted a cloud to come up with a flurry of more than 100 km when the next day. Thus began the third day, which actually did not start, all I could do was tie the kayaks and tents to wait out a storm so violent. The blast kills rod broke through the tent making a hole in the insulation sheets. Adding misery, humidity broke through the main camera so the photos will be without detail. And to close and begin with good things, an afternoon nap in the middle of the sea rise surprised us with a very fast and stole a kayak.
Luckily I could see it before the west wind carry him out to sea and after a few meters swim in cold water the kayak back into place. The only drawback is that I finished 5 days paddling important that caught a cold then Wig.
a difficult period, but gave up stories to tell between matte and matte. In good, we could see lots of Dolphins and Commerson's dolphins, in fact we managed to do that swim alongside the kayaks and play with us. The experience was unique.
The scenery is changing, suddenly some plateaus but most beaches Peladero background, all very plain. There are many rock formations and beautiful bays but the weather did not help much. The clouds are moving and the spring does not arrive, and in fact expect the summer but let directly to Tierra del Fuego to the changing climate of the entire Argetnina.
Now we go to Puerto Santa Cruz to arrive then Monte Leon National Park with some interesting formations. In the previous photos of Santa Cruz met with the gray gull, cormorant gray, gray day and a sea elephant that appeared in Monte Loayza, an old book Wildlife Foundation in a room, the morning but do not know what the current status of the reservation because the signage was blown up and there seemed to be a marked path. The rich fauna of the area is high. Crabs do not appear, but we are looking almost desperately.
spent by many non-working headlights, Argentina has neglected the maintenance of the same and while many have solar panels the batteries are exhausted. It's a shame to see them to fall in many cases.
Something more to tell, Laura Bay we met Eduardo, a gathering Alghero algae that occurs with the agar agar, which is in many foods we consume daily. Eduardo invited us to stay in an old group and told us about Bahía Laura and postal courier, abandoned building and looted by the people.
35 years ago that Edward is in the courier and hand assembling board algae bales of 300 kg collected after his old truck the 50's. There are many places scattered Argentinos unusual. The Patagonian coast is accessible for browsing, or fishermen siemrpe stays there to lend a hand. The weather can complicate things a lot, but with good logistics anything is possible.
San Julián We entered the wind dead against a significant tidal current of over 10 knots.
The waves were big and there are many banks, we had to stop for an hour in the old plant of Swift and follow when the blasts halted. Friends of The Yacht Club Dolphin came with the rubber boat at full speed to escort on arrival, share mates and bills and will come a great roast.
We'll see you next from Puerto Santa Cruz to tell more about what we're seeing. Greetings from the south.
