January 14, 2019 – January 29, 2019….yes, 2 weeks and counting….

We got an appointment with the mechanic for a few days out, and then found a nice campground right on the edge of the town of Coyhaique. Coyhaique is the largest town in Chilean Patagonia, with about 50,000 people, and is a tourist hub. We were amazed at the number of people staying in the campground…sometimes there would be 30 tents set up and 4 or 5 rigs in the parking lot. It was a bit overwhelming with our after having wild camped for so many nights in isolation.
