Padling the río Manso
After paddling the Gol Gol we crossed the border to Argentina. We drove to Bariloche, a big touristic city in the south of Argentina near Patagonia. Once there we went to the Nahuel Huapi National Park to paddel the río Manso.
Cerros near Bariloche.
We slept there and we ran a really nice slide and a waterfall, the well known Alerces Waterfall. After a week of hard rain, the waterlevel was high, and the slide and the waterfall looked huge. There was the same waterlevel as in the Twitch V, when Tao bermand the other guys ran the drops. We ran the slide first and then the waterfall, my partener broke his paddel on the slide. I ran the slide and the waterfall pretty good, the only problem was that I ended on the right eddy of the waterfall, so I couldn’t cross and I had to climb.
The slide.
The waterfall.
