4
5 The park is open daily 9am 9pm between October and April, but can be cut off by snow, sometimes for weeks on end; the weather changes moods like a spoilt child. THE ROUGH GUIDE TO ARGENTINA, PAGE 494
6 Extreme isolation means that, despite being one of Argentina s first national parks to be created, the PARQUE NACIONAL PERITO MORENO is also one of its least visited. Though replete with glorious mountains and beautiful lakes, this is not a sightseeing park THE ROUGH GUIDE TO ARGENTINA, PAGE 493

40 STRATEGIES: IMPLEMENTATION 5. Chart and record progress with weekly reports 50 Operations Report from March 16 th to 24 th, PMNP Projects For the second half of shift #6, Crew One was moved to Azara Falls Camp. Crew Two continued working from Lagoon Camp to the West. Both crews worked towards each other in the final section to Azara Falls, with the intention of meeting at some point close to the middle. All attention is focused on completing this most remote section of trail. Leadership is optimistic that it can be completed by the end of the season despite the technical work it demands. However cold temperatures and increased precipitation typical of the fall months could affect productivity. The other unfinished section of trail, approx. 4.5 km, closer to the trailhead, will be completed in early spring when high winds limit navigation. The trail from Hut #6 to Azara Falls will be approximately 13.5 km with the new trail layout. Trail Status Report The table shows the progress of both crews added together.
