The activities we did with Swoop providers were part of an extended trip in Chile. Every day we have spent in Chile (and a bit in Argentina) either with a Swoop activity or traveling on our own has been fun and enjoyable. We have met many great people - locals as well as other travelers. Having said that there is no ONE thing that stands out, since the entire trip has been memorable.

The 4-huts hike outside Bariloche - every time we got to the top of a ridge or peak and had amazing 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains and lakes. It was breathtaking!!

We woke up at Peros Camp to snow. The John Gardner Pass was a white out where the wind had covered the path. Other hikers waited for us so our Guide Ian Rodriguez could set the path. It was a very hard day but our group all agreed it was the most memorable part of our day. Other hikers thanked our guide for helping them over the pass.

The expected and unexpected things we experienced on Day 4 from Los Perros to Grey Glacier via the John Gardner Pass. The mountains, glaciers, wildlife, and the gift of favorable weather to enjoy it all.

Doing and finishing the O-Circuit safely with nice, like-minded people, expertly led by two great guides in Alberto and Chris, having our belongings carried by five fabulous porters in breathtaking surroundings and we was very lucky with the weather.

No one particular highlight. Landscapes were pretty awesome. We only met our group (six in total, all Canadians) and our great guide and porters. Probably would tell anyone “don’t go”.... The trail and conditions were a surprise. Climbing to the John Gardner pass and finishing the “O” circuit were great moments.

Successfuly summiting the John Garner pass during a snow storm & wind. The beauty of the entire hike and the coordination & guidance of Ian & Fio to keep our group informed, motivated & safe.

Meeting new people from many different places. Living in Colorado we love the outdoors, which we truly enjoyed the great outdoors in Patagonia as well.

Its hard to pick out one thing, but I would have to say watching the sun rise over the towers was amazing a long crazy hike but there was a full moon made it even better.

The most memorable moments outside of all of the amazing views were the evenings hanging out at the camps with our guide and porters having a few beers. There were some languages barriers for some of the porters but it was still so much fun. Got to learn a lot about the culture and life of people who lived here and it was the best.

Crossing the John Gardner Pass was the most memorable moment for me! We'd had a rainy morning and we actually had a pretty gorgeous snowstorm as we were crossing over the top. I always felt safe with our guide Emilio, but I could barely lift my eyes. I was just following the footsteps right in front of me. Once we passed the tallest part of the trek, we started walking back down, and what lay in front of us was one of the most stunning sights I'd ever seen - a HUGE glacier! That was the most memorable day because it was an intense experience and the visuals still stick in my mind.

Overall, being able to complete the hike, which was challenging and amazing. But the third day (John Garner pass) was probably the most memorable.
