I was in Patagonia in Feb/Mar 2023. I took a ship cruise of the Chilean fjords to see some of the glaciers in the southern part of Patagonia, and I visited Torres del Paine to see the towering mountain peaks and lakes there. Also, I saw the Perito Moreno Glacier in the northern section of Patagonia.
