Patagonia in the fall is one of the most beautiful seasonal changes I have ever witnessed. In March/April, the small leaves of the Lenga trees turn every color from scarlet to maroon, like a crimson tide washing up the sides of the jagged mountains.
Wanting to see the beauty of nature up close, I explored the Patagonian Andes on foot, winding through gilded forests alongside crystal clear alpine streams, spotting mushrooms and birds, and climbing up on top of rocky ridge lines, even soaring through the sky with a parachute, getting a bird's eye view of the hundred lakes nestled below hundreds of snowcapped peaks. I got caught in a snowstorm and saw the world's largest flying bird in the wild, the Andean Condor.
The months I spent in Bariloche were incredible. I didn't show it in the video, but I made a couple of really good friends, whom I shared many wonderful experiences with. I also spent a lot of time in the cabin- once winter came, it was pretty cold and snowy and the roads and trails were treacherous. Bariloche is one of those places that I hope I venture back to one day.
