Part III. Ascent to Mojón Rojo.
Despite of the hurricane we continued by the eastern side of the mount. Reaching the summit and spent descent to El Chalten directly, trough Laguna Sucia. It was round trip in 36 hours from "Lo de Trivi Hostal" and back.
It was dark night when we arrived, the stars  were shining as we never seen before in Patagonia.

Part II. Ascent to Mojón Rojo.
We climb up by the second half of the corridor by soft snow and thin ice. Then normal route turns to the right following an easy slabs but the wind has increased incredible so we decided to continue straight on by mixed gulley to reach the saddle.
