What was your most memorable moment?
My most memorable moment was arriving at the Towers at 83 years old and twenty years after my quadruple bypass heart operation. I had been climbing for six hours by myself with a gash in my hand that required four stitches, a sprained wrist, and cuts on my nose and lip from a fall at camp.

Tell us about the Trekking
The treks were long and difficult, but doable. The guides were exceptional.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
As the packing guide indicates, prepare for the worst, but be pleasantly surprised if the weather is ideal, as it was during my week in Patagonia. I packed everything but a short-sleeved shirt.
Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?
I especially appreciated the advice to rebook my flight back from Punta Arenas to Santiago and on to Atlanta, GA. Swoop pointed out that the hour and a quarter layover in Santiago was too short, so I booked a flight from Puerto Natales to Santiago with a four hour layover. The line at the security checkpoint in Santiago had about 400 people and took more than an hour to get through. I would have missed my flight to Atlanta if I had not changed my flight to Saniiago.
How prepared and excited for Patagonia did you feel?
Swoop provided great previews and details on what to expect, as well as an itinerary that was personalized to me. I felt well prepared.
