The complex rock architecture of Cerro Torre (3128m). Not a particularly easy climb to the summit! In fact the first undisputed climb was only in 1974 and a previous claim dating from 1959 caused much controversy before being disproved as recently as 2005.

The view of Cerro Torre (on a good day) from Laguna Torre.

Amazing fiery dawn alpenglow on Cerro Torre as the clouds rapidly gather around it. Well worth getting up before 5am for! No PS saturation trickery here - this is as close to the slide as I can manage, although it helps that I was shooting with Velvia.

Close up of the summit of Cerro Torre (3128m) - a seriously vertical bit of rock! The 'mushroom cap' is peculiar to these mountains. It is composed of aerated frost deposited from the moist and very frequent winds that blow over the summit. Fly to this location (Requires Google Earth )
