Today we went to Cerro Tronador to see a black glaciar. The road up to the glaciar is rough and narrow, so they operate a one way system. Between 10.30 and 2 you go go up. After 4 pm you can come down.
The road rises up alongside Lago Miscardi, which is very deep blue.
Despite it being a narrow road a bus driver hassled us to go faster. We let him through and he then held us up all the way. He evn stopped and blocked the road so his passengers could take photos.
It is 31 km to the top and it took nearly two hours!
The black glaciar is black because of the moraine.
The glaciar was surrounded by dark volcanic cliffs with waterfalls. It says in the guidebook it is like Yosemite, but neither of us has ever been there.
We then went for a stroll to a blue river. We saw two hares charging down the path - too quick for a photo.
We also saw some strange things growing in trees such as fungus and old man's beard.
There were revolving stiles.
The bridge was a bit wonky.
