We were waiting for 5 days to see the summit of Fitz Roy. Some may call us lucky, the waited much longer.

We never had a clear sky, there were always clouds. However, that is the way I wanted to have it. The area is famous for bad weather. There are not many days with deep blue sky. So one can say that is the way it is. Fitz Roy, the artist with the tools wind and clouds.
