October 14, 2022 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

One of the pleasures of our adventures are the unexpectedly engaging times spent with our kids. Sometimes the days when we have the least activities planned are the days when we find the deepest connection. On the morning we left Rio Maipo, we decided to visit the edge of the river to explore.

With some time to kill after visiting Embalse El Yeso, we drove along the Rio Maipo for a short hike / scramble in a slot canyon. We passed the well-advertised and popular slot canyon on the river, which had a gate, crowded parking lot, and appeared to charge a fee for entrance. We pressed on […]
