Lago Todos los Santos

On Saturday, we headed off to El Lago Todos Los Santos (All Saint´s Lake), a Chilean national park. The sheer diversity of the park was captivating- from a 360º turn I could see crisp blue waters, green hillsides, and a snow-capped volano. Some students opted to go on boat rides towards the Argentinean border and others went on ¨adventure tours¨ that included ropes courses and ziplines. I ended up going for a 4-hour hike on a trail called Paseo Desolación. Here are some of the best pics!

Horseflies!

The one downside of Lago Todos Los Santos...they were everywhere. Lucky for me, they tended to cloud around people wearing darker colors by then 10´s, but I happened to be wearing a white shirt so they tended to leave me alone. No real bites for anyone though.
