Great views!!On December 29, 2006, my life partner, Karen Wilkie, and I ascended the standard southern route up Cerro Toco. Great hike to a high elevation summit that provides excellent views. We had been hiking at high elevations (up to 5000m) for the previous week, so starting the hike around 5000 metres wasn't a problem for us. Chile is an incredibly beautiful country with very friendly inhabitants; it rocks!
