  1. Teaching Cards Against Humanity to new Argentine friends in the middle of nowhere
    \n<\/strong>We were in the middle of a four-day trek outside of Bariloche and one of the Refugios had Cards Against Humanity. A group of local Argentines asked if we knew how to play and would teach them, so of course we obliged. The funniest part was having to define so many of the cards, things I never really wanted to have to explain to anyone. But we all laughed for hours!\"P1140168\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Attempting to trout fish in Cajon de Azul
    \n<\/strong>We didn’t catch anything, but it was such a beautiful place. It was a good thing that Refugio Cajon de Azul had a lamb dinner for us! It was the most beautiful refugio we went to, I could have stayed there for three or four days.    \"Cajon<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. Surviving the Haupi Nahuel Traverse
    \n<\/strong>Our most technical and mentally exhausting hike to date. It involved rock climbing 50m up a narrow rock shoot on the side of a mountain with a 1,000ft drop below us (probably shoulda had a harness and rope) and 4 hours of ridgeline rock scrambling, followed by 3 more hours of tough hiking.    \"P1140260\"<\/a> \"P1140296\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Experiencing a real asado
    \n<\/strong>We stayed in a small guesthouse owned by a sweet family who immediately took us in. After a lot of trekking, and then camping our first night we went to “the locals’ butcher” picked up half of a lamb and learned how you make the perfect asado on your parilla.    \"Asado<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. The hippie market of El Bolson
    \n<\/strong>We just hung out there for hours. Great people watching, good artenseal beer, organic produce. I also scored some feather earrings. El Bolson is Boulder, CO’s long lost twin sister.    \"Bolson<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. Sunrise at Refugio Frey
    \n<\/strong>The granite peaks in the background turned bright pink and orange and the lake reflected it beautifully.    \"P1140172\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. Stopping to pick wild blackberries
    \n<\/strong>In the middle of our search for a hostel in El Bolson we came across a huge patch of wild blackberries and just stopped for 30 minutes to pick them and eat all we could. They were so sweet, I think I ate a couple of pints there on the side of the road.<\/li>\n
  8. Staying in The Penthouse with a view over Bariloche
    \n<\/strong>Best view from a hostel room we\u2019ve ever had    \"Penthouse\"<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
