| While we are far south and the weather is usually cool, we are only 200 meters above sea level, so the cold is intense and the temperature is pleasant especially in summer, but do not rely, climate change constantly, every 40 miles is no temperature difference and we have the 4 seasons in one day. If the day is windy, the wind does not play hide and seek,
never going to win, instead we recommend, straighten .... and facing the wind, the experience is unforgettable! If you get a calm day, write it on the calendar!! In general, the mornings are very calm, like sunsets, between 11 and 18 hours. is windy, especially from November through to February but, as we said before, do not rely on the weather in these payments change every half hour and every 40 miles! Therefore we recommend the "operative onion layered clothing that is, t-shirt, shirt, a sweatshirt and jacket, gloves and sunglasses, and especially a small backpack, if he feels heat, goes off his coat. We suggest clothing, comfortable, comfortable and above all appropriate footwear for walking on uneven ground (shoes or boots with thick soles and rubber or rubber).
Also in the backpack should be without sunscreen, sunglasses, a couple of cereal bars or chocolate, tissue paper, mineral water and a couple of Band-Aids! Distances are long in santa cruz and if there is any problem with the vehicle, there will always be near a service center, always goes better with some time to fool the stomach and Band-Aids ... so maybe the walk is long. Use gloves, especially when trekking on the glacier. You do not need snow equipment. |
