Read MoreThe French Valley
We've now reached the centre of the "W", the French Valley. The day I was there was very cloudy and I felt lucky to see the peak of Paine Grande and the French Galcier. Cloud was on and off throughout the day along the peaks. This is a view point on Rio del Frances just before Camp Italiano. From Camp Italiano you can hike a steep trail on the middle of the W through the French Valley to several view points. To reach the end you really need to spend the night at Camp Italiano and leave your heaviest load at the camp. The camp allowed only a one night stay, so you will need to move on later in the day. (The camp actually seemed quite crowded and run down.)
