I'll look through my collected stuff on Patagonia ( mostly Argentina, not
Chile, unfortunately ) and send you what I think you might be able to use,
Fred.

Let me add that I've now talked personally with several people that have
done DIY trips to Patagonia and they all agreed that it's reasonably easy,
the local people eager to help on the whole, and that Patagonia is MORE than
worth the effort to get there. I'm still aiming at a trip, myself ...
wish I didn't hate airplanes so much ( I have serious claustrophobia not
fear of smashing into the ground ) .... my wife likes world travel (shes' in
Spain right now ) and IS interested in New Zealand but not really in
Patagonia, so NZ may be my first international (besides Canada ) fishing
trip, hopefully next year for a couple three months.


Anyway, enjoy your planning G
