I Packrafted Alone from Argentina to Chile… Here’s What Happened

Join me on an epic adventure as I tackle the rugged wilderness of Patagonia alone. Over six days, I'll cover 150km through pack-rafting and wild camping, starting from Lago Puelo in Argentina and aiming to reach the Pacific Ocean on Chile’s west coast.
This journey will challenge my resilience, with over 90km of paddling across pristine lakes and battling against headwinds that slow progress to a crawl. I'll navigate pulse-pounding Class III rapids that threaten to capsize my raft and make long portages to bypass treacherous Class V canyons in some of the most remote and inaccessible terrains.
But it's not all about the adrenaline. The trip also promises serene moments in dream camping spots surrounded by magnificent landscapes - from towering waterfalls and massive cliffs to the crystal-clear waters of glacial melts. Plus, there’s the chance to fish for pristine rainbow trout and fully immerse in the overwhelming beauty of nature.
Watch as I paddle, hike, and improvise through this thrilling adventure. Follow along and experience the full immersion into the heart of Patagonia.
Here we go, boys and girls. Join the adventure!
WARNING: I underestimated the risks of this expedition and failed in some safety measures (such as taking a helmet!). The river levels were also higher than planned and the rapids were more dangerous than anticipated. Recirculating water can be extremely dangerous and drowning is a real possibility. Going alone and/or into remote and hard-to-access areas makes it even more dangerous and external rescue may not always be possible. Please ensure you do your own research on any adventures and prepare accordingly. You are responsible for your own life and risks taken. I accept no responsibility for any actions taken by any individual watching this video and/or deciding to do this or something similar.
