DAY 2

We´ll leave our tent at La Playita, and Trek to the Marconi pass with a daypack; we´ll spend most of the day on glacier terrain, first on the ablation area, and afterwords on the accumulation area. We´ll use crampons and ropes to get across the glacier and steep terrain. Weather allowing, there are excellent panoramic views of Fitz Roy, Piergiorgio and Gorra Blanca, among others. We´ll descent in the afternoon to our campsite. This is about a 10-12 hour day with an elevation gain of 950 meters.
