Monte Fitz Roy (3405 m) is also called Cerro Chaltén and this word 'Chaltén' comes from a Tehuelche word meaning "smoking mountain", due to a cloud that usually forms around the mountain's peak. In 2000, there was no paved road to the small village El Chaltén, which is also called Argentina's Trekking Capital. - scanned slide, Minolta X700, PiP shows a color version! I postet this photo years ago, but it fits in the new stream with new scans with geotags etc., so I reposted it.

Monte Fitz Roy (also known as Cerro Chaltén or Cerro Fitz Roy) is a mountain located near El Chaltén village, in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, on the border between Argentina and Chile. First climbed in 1952 by French alpinists Lionel Terray and Guido Magnone, it remains among the most technically challenging mountains for mountaineers on Earth. Elevation is 3375 m.
