Lago grey

After a splendid drive up from Peurto Natales we entered the Torres del Paine park, with obligatory gunacco sleeping nearby. 



We headed west in the park to Lago Grey, and Lady Grey glacier. We had a restorative drink in th gorgeous hotel, with a view to die for, before  a shore half hour walk through a beech grove and across grey pebble beach with icebergs floating on the shore.




The next few hours were a fabulous meander, past towering mountains and bobbing bergs to the front of the glacier. 



The colour and shapes are amazing, and sadly the amount of obvious shrinkage in the glacier front was easy to discern
