Marty,
In another thread by Mike Ormsby entitled "Catch Magazine" if you go to the link for the Magazine and open up Issue #2, there is an article on Southern Chile on page 80 of that issue including a slide show.

Thanks Dave. I hadn't seen that, and the slideshow is pretty dang good.
We're now looking at a loose itinerary involving: Tierra del Fuego, El Calafate, Puerto Natales (Chile), El Chalten, Esquel, Bariloche, perhaps Neuquen and maybe a day or two on the coast before heading back to Buenos Aires.
We did end up doing the full 2 weeks (7-21 March).
Most likely we'll have to cut out one or two locations so we're not constantly on the move like we did in NZ, which made for a killer excursion but a very tiring vacation.
We've managed to stay below budget thus far due to the excellent exchange rate, but traveling from one town to another is going to take a LOT of time. We're planning mostly overnight bus trips - their bus lines offer what amount to beds (big reclining seats) that will save us travel time during the day and lodging $$$.
So it's coming along...

There's a guy in our fly club who was a guide there for two years and has written a book on fly fishing Patagonia. I can send you his email address if you'd like? PM me if you want the address!
