100 horses in the Andes

2008.04.06
into the deep valleys

Simon, one of the young expert riders, getting ready for the day

Impresive loose gravel wall behind us

about to face 100 km winds....

Pardo and Gringo, expert gauchos, lead the way....

Tristan and his horse

view of our camp in the lenga forest

immense mountains....

and valleys...

lunch break

zig-zag

is everyone's saddle Ok?

chasing a horse without a rider, Vitito falls into the patagonian steppe

silouttes of riders and San Lorenzo, the highest peak in Patagonia

rounding the horses for the first day

"La 89" on top of the hill, looking at the 100 horses

Black clouds announce a wet start

After grazing in the morning, they are brought back into the pen for another day in the Andes

crossing the creek

panoramic view of the group getting ready

lunc break, at last....

almost home, a welcome stop for the horses on a hot day



IN one of the most remote parts of Patagonia, 70 souls gather to make the ride of their lifetime into the Andes, from Menelik ranch to Veranada de Jones. A small army, with 100 horses, sharing one of the most beautiful places in the world
