Crossing the mountains; from desert to Jungas
Rather than staying in the valley we decided to head over the cordillera to our east away from the oppressive heat of desert south of Cafatayette, towards Tafi.Look closely at the sign. Does Richard have a South American dopleganger?
Looking back down at the desert scrub.
Our dutch friends Mark & Robbert will be pleased to know we've found another kettle bush. They really do exist.
The wine here is so good that there are signs warning people that they'll spill it if they drive. So don't!
34km downhill on paved roads. (2390m-370m). From altiplano type fauna through pine and then deciduous forest, to jungas jungle and finally to the vast flatlands and the 'Garden of Argentina'.
