Ruta Zeballos: Paso Roballo to Los Antiguos

I thought this was a spectacular drive, but somehow the photos don't quite capture it.

We crossed back from Chile to Argentina at the quiet Paso Roballos. The Argentine border staff weren't sure how to process a foreign vehicle,  but we are getting used to that and it was all figured out. (Amazingly,  in early January at one border crossing we were informed that the computer showed we had entered the vehicle into Argentina 4 times, but only left once. This, of course, is impossible,  but shows the inefficiency of their work. )

Anyway, we spent the day driving in a spectacular part of the world, mostly because the view of the Chilean side is spectacular,  but better from the distance (we think).

At the end of the day, near Los Antiguos, we met an Austrian overlander, who we've been meeting again and again since Christmas in Ushuaia. We were surprised to see him as we'd expected him to be well far away by now, rather than just leaving Los Antiguos (where we had last seen him). He was doing the circuit in reverse to what we had. Unfortunately there had been an overlander accident in town and he had witnessed it and stayed for the week to help out. We saw the wreckage in town, but I can't say much about it aside that everyone survived and it's reported they'll be okay, the vehicle was a right off though.
