Patagonia has always held a deep allure in my psyche. It did not disappoint! Vast, barren openness, punctuated by jaw dropping, cloud enshrouded mountain peaks. A visit to Cape Horn, not far from the termination of Route 1, was a once in a lifetime adventure. This National Geographic lead tour revealed the history, biology, and environmental significance of this unique eco-system at the bottom of the world. (Our trip companions were a lot of fun, too!).
