Wow amazing!! 😍🥺 Last time I went in Chile I couldn't go to Patagonia, its in my list for a long while as well... I'm planning it! I saw some tents, did you camp there? I would be very grateful if you could share some tips and maybe some camping contact that I could contact and plan my dream trip too, tks. 😍🙏🏻

@@susietopspin Thanks, Chickpea! Yeah he actually wasn’t supposed to be guiding but there were people out sick so his boss called and begged him to take our group because he was the only one available. But he said it’s the best boss he’s ever had and the boss offered to wait at the hospital/ do anything he needed to he agreed. I could tell he was anxious the last couple days of the hike though! He had a really good attitude about it. I slipped him an extra tip for a baby gift. 😊

I’ve been around the Wonderland twice. Once in 2002 and again in 2007. I plan to go one more time with my grandson before I get too old (70 next month). It’s actually 93 miles around the mountain with average daily elevation change of 2700 feet (up and down). Highest point is 6800 feet. Most people plan 9-12 days to comfortably do the whole loop, although I have a good friend who did it in 3 days, carrying just a day pack. He had food drops prepared for him on days 1 and 2. It’s one of the most beautiful and rewarding trails I’ve hiked over the years.

Interesting thoughts on pacing. One of the main reasons for having a slow pace above 12,000 ft. is acclimatization. Guides don't want guests to go into "oxygen deficit". It can push the body into the signs/symptoms of HAPE and HACE. Or even worse! I have been guiding for decades in the Himalayas. In 2023 I guided the 3-Pass Loop/Everest Base Camp Trek followed by the Manaslu Trek. We set a slow pace that keeps moving. Not a stop & go pace. Normally when my group gets above 16,000 ft we are passing exhausted hikers on the side of the trail. In 2022 I did 670 miles on the AT in 40 days. That's different due to the low elevation. Averaging 20 miles a day is no issue. I used to own Aspen Alpine Guides in Aspen, Colorado. I was on Mountain Rescue Aspen for over 24 years. Slow and steady is the key in the high peaks. Check out, www.youtube.com/@ronrash5895. Oh and definitely keep your channel going!!! 🙏

I did the Manaslu trek in late Oct/early Nov this year and was really surprised to see the larches (I live in the PNW and enjoy the early October larch madness, so I am pretty sure they are a larch variety) coming out of Shyala into Samagoan. Cool to see inside that temple that is getting finished. There wasn't anyone around and it was locked when we checked it out. Hope you had a great trek! We did.

Horse/mule/donkey sneezes always make me laugh. Good way to start the video. 50+ years ago our cat Punkin(orange cat) would jump up on the coral fence and visit Kim(my sister's morgan horse). They'd sniff each other and one time Kim sneezed. Punkin leaped off the fence and ran for his life. Nice video. Liz Kidder was just saying that some famous guy was there about the same time she was but she didn't know it. Nice video. I like the stone construction. Its much better than I've been able to do. Happy Trails. Good Luck, Rick
