Another season has come and gone on the Rio Grande and as usual, the river taught us many lessons. The main theme of this season was the drought over the island – which in fact affected all of Patagonia. By the end of December we saw the last rains of the summer and they restarted by mid march.

While we were sad about our Italian friends from last week leaving, we were just as excited for our new group to arrive.
