1 205 WORLDWIDE TRAVEL PROGRAM 205 Cruising Patagonia s Chilean Fjords with Mark Van Baalen, LECTURER ON EARTH AND PLANETARY SCIENCES October 20 November 2, 205

2 Cruising Patagonia s Chilean Fjords October 20 November 2, 205 (3 nights / 4 days) Easter Island pre-program and Iguazú Falls post-program options Ainsworth Bay, Chile It is scarcely possible to imagine anything more beautiful than the beryl-like blue of these glaciers, wrote Charles Darwin, awestruck by the unique iridescent blue green ice while cruising southern Argentina and Chile in 833. From the legendary Tierra del Fuego archipelago to glacier studded fjords and sweeping pampas grassland, you too can experience the extremes and contrasts of this breathtaking tip of South America Patagonia which crosses the Andes from the Pacific to the Atlantic. On this unforgettable land and sea journey of extraordinary inspiration, retrace the travels of Darwin and Ferdinand Magellan in southern Chile, a wild landscape still virtually untouched even more than a century after the first European settlers. Discover extraordinary places from Santiago to the awe inspiring diversity of Patagonia, through magnificent Glacier Alley to the tip of Cape Horn, the edge of the world. Follow in the wake of Darwin and HMS Beagle, aboard the expedition ship m.v. Via Australis, designed specifically for cruising the historic and spectacular waterways of southern Patagonia, where the mountains meet the ocean. Rivaling those of Norway and Alaska, the Chilean fjords offer, among their hidden islands and narrow channels, some of the world s best viewing of tidewater glaciers, subantarctic woodlands and marine wildlife Andean condors, humpback whales, Peale s dolphins and rare Chilean dolphins. It is also a region rich in history, and you will cruise through two of the most significant passages in world exploration Beagle Channel and the Strait of Magellan. An onboard team of multilingual expert naturalists will enrich your expedition with their in depth knowledge of the region s history, natural wonders and wildlife. The ship is equipped with Zodiac landing craft for excursions to see glaciers up close as they crack and calve; observe the unique local wildlife, including Magellanic penguins, elephant seals and cormorants; and see traces of the Yámanas, the original settlers of Wulaia Bay. This is a co-sponsored program: National Trust for Historic Preservation For detailed itineraries VISIT ALUMNI.HARVARD.EDU/HAA/TRAVEL

3 HARVARD STUDY LEADER Mark Van Baalen, Associate in Earth and Planetary Sciences Mark Van Baalen has served the University in a variety of roles since 962. He received his A.B. in Astronomy in 966. While an undergraduate he worked on the NASA-funded OSO-D satellite that flew in 967 and obtained the first successful ultraviolet images of the Sun from orbit. Later, he turned his attention to the Earth sciences, receiving his A.M. and Ph.D. in Geology. Since 995 he has been a Lecturer and Associate in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. During that time he taught popular courses in physical and environmental geology, and acted as mentor to many undergraduates. Over the course of his career, Mark s research has focused on the origin of ancient ocean basins and their associated mountain belts. More recently, he has studied the interactions between human activities and the inexorable process of climate change. In addition to these strictly scientific interests, Mark has a deep interest in history, including the exploration of remote regions of the world. Mark and his wife, Louisa recently retired from the Kennedy School of Government, have been privileged to lead numerous HAA excursions to distant lands. On these trips, Mark lectures on the natural history of the regions being visited, as well as painting a broader picture of human interaction with its environment, now and in the past. ENGAGING EXPERTS ON BOARD Seasoned expert naturalists, who have studied and traveled extensively in this remote region of the world, will travel with you aboard the m.v. Via Australis and provide lectures and presentations on glaciology in Patagonia, discovering Tierra del Fuego, survival of the native Indians in the region and Sir Ernest Shackleton s Antarctic adventures. The team s collaborative experience and enthusiasm for sharing their knowledge make them exceptionally well-suited to lead your cruise through Patagonia s Chilean fjords. Scheduled guest speakers may be altered due to circumstances beyond our control. See General Information section. Pia Glacier For detailed itineraries VISIT ALUMNI.HARVARD.EDU/HAA/TRAVEL
