Patagonia , Chile January to March 2007
|
|
Two fantastic months in "no man´s land" have come to an end. The distance from Puerto Williams to Puerto Montt along the Chilean coast and Patagonia became 1400nm. Almost the same distance as from the Swedish border via Oslo and around the Norwegian coast to Grense Jacobs Elv at the Russian border.
650 liter of diesel, 600 liter fresh water and loads of dryfood and tinned food has been consumed. We had a long, humid and sometimes cold voyage on our way north. Even though, it is the fabolous and dramatic nature and all the animal life that comes first to our minds.
