Bariloche, Argentina - Day 2

So today I decided to do a trek with some people from the Spanish school. The school organizes daily after class activities and today’s activity was to hike up Cerro Otto. A purported 2 hour hike turned into 7 hours gruelingly hot death march as we had some slow people, it was much more difficult than anticipated, and the journey up the hill was a twisting snake of a trail along the road so we were coated in dirt from the passing cars by the time we made it to the top.

On the bright side, we got to see some amazing views from the top, a paraglider take off, and the refugio for the first ski resort in Latin America.
