Flashback 1988

Chilling in Chile!

Back in the Summer of 1988 (winter in the Northern Hemisphere) this world hiker set out on a little jaunt in Chile's Torres del Paine National Park in southern Patagonia. Unbeknown to him at the time that he would someday be authoring a Backpacking Book! Check out that pack- must be at least 60 pounds- and that hair! Thank God this author has discovered hiking light techniques and a razor since then!
