Josue´s American colleague Natish from the hostel was hiking in the evening to the same refugio. This is him "boldering" (rock-climing sidewards so no need for security) in the early morning hours, close to the Refugio Frey:
Yes, exactly, all the way down through this dirt just to get up again on the very end of other side. :)
From the next edge: Refugio San Martin (hard to be seen on the button right of Laguna Jacob). It's nicer, bigger, less people, but no El Torre. I cooked there my Pasta for Lunch and continued home to Bariloche the same day.
Valley Casa de Piedra:
Crossing just before a waterfall. I took a small bath. Freezing :)
Valley Casa de Piedra, very beautiful, relatively easy to hike and recommended very much by myself!
Arriving on the first dirt-road I auto-stoped. The first car passing took me with him until the city boarder of Bariloche where I could take a bus to the Hostel. A perfect trip.
I was proud to have made it, as two days are recommended for the hike that I did in only one.
