Colin Haley and Andy Wyatt, both from the United States, have completed the first known one-day “car to car” ascent of Cerro Fitz Roy in Patagonia. The two did the round-trip from the roadside near the town of El Chaltén in 21 hours 8 minutes, climbing the Supercanaleta route on Fitz Roy's west face and descending the French Route on the south side.

Wow!!! Not what most folks would consider a day trip! Way to go guys!

Nature exists with a stark indifference to humans' situation.

I need a life reboot so I can train to do cool stuff like this while I'm young. I suffered from a serious lack of imagination compared to these guys.
