Images from Chile, Page-3

We popped into Chile to climb a volcano, but were confronted by torrential rain. Fortunately after a day of heavy rain our prayers were answered and the sun came out. We climbed Volcan Villarrica, which is a live volcano and a great climb with spectacular views, and you get the chance to slide back down on your bum!
