Zero at Refugio Grey
We all agreed that a zero was just what we needed so that's what we did. Nothing... except for a short walk to the lake to see the glacier and floating ice from yet another angle. We got to see a red headed Megellanic woodpecker. We also dried out our tents. Usually a zero is a day to catch up on emails but since there is no internet here it was another unconnected day.
It rained last night and was windy this morning. We were so lucky with the weather yesterday.
We had dinner with the cutest couple from Korea. Newly retired, they are now traveling and love to hike. They had planned on backpacking and tenting and brought all their gear with them. One night in severe winds near FitzRoy convinced them that day hiking was a better fit for them. Now they are staying and eating in the refugios and loving their light packs.
Another hot shower and bed and the end of another wonderful day.
