In Patagonia, He Who Rushes, Loses Time.


In the town of Cochrane we attended the local festival Los Pioneros del Rio Baker.  The festival included copious amounts of meat and a jineteada (similar to the American bucking bronco) contest.  The festival was held on a family's estancia outside of Cochrane.  The family provided all people who came with free mutton done in the traditional Patagonian way.

Finally we left Cochrane and took the weekly bus to the last city on the Carretera Austral, Villa O'Higgins.
