Chile 2008 Itinerary
Chile 2008 Itinerary
Note: You will notice low water plans. I believe in preparing for the worse and improving. Scout reports are indicating a good snow year with dramatically early snow melts causing low levels. EG: Jon Clarke (NOC International Guide and Futaleafu property owner, “The Futa is already at March levels.. Pucon may be your saving grace.”
With that said you will notice “low water plans”. Kyle and I will be in Chile prior to the trip and will finalize the options upon visual inspection just days prior to student arrival.
