JohnHuth Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Hi, All - This is less of a trip report, so I'm posting it here. I just returned from a week in Patagonia, and did a modest paddle with an outfitter. If you are interested in some amazing scenery and paddling, I highly recommend the area. There are a huge number of fiords and rivers there. I don't know of anyone other than this particular outfitter, but he can arrange for rentals, gear, and transportation. He has a lot of local knowledge and would make a great guide. A few comments - the water is super-cold, even in their summer time. You can camp pretty much anywhere without a permit. Fresh water is abundant. The tides in the fiords do require some local knowledge, but I'm working with the guide to establish some rudimentary tide tables. If you're curious or interested, PM me. The particular trip I took was only a 3 hour jaunt down a river that drains a glacial lake - but it was magnificent nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eneumeier Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was in Patagonia (Lago Argentino, Beagle Channel, Ushuaia) about 20 years ago and would to return to paddle there. Hard to see it happening in this lifetime, though. Absolutely spectacular. Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
