Wise's Wilderness - The Journey Begins

This website is a service to the community.

It contains images of places that are reached on foot. My view of the wilderness.

So, grab a cup of tea, coffee or yerba mate and let me take you on an armchair journey to .........

South America

My obsession - Patagonia

Torres Del Paine, Puerto Natales, Chile, South America. It is claimed to be the most beautiful national park in the word. Very popular with foreigners, expensive for Chileans because of the remote location.
Perito Moreno Glaciar, El Calafate, Argentina, South America. A most remarkable Glacier. Busloads of tourists visit it every day.
Nahuel Huapi, Bariloche, Argentina, South America. A national park in Argentina's top outdoors destination. A huge selection of activities and places to visit in summer and winter.

So that you can appreciate the images better, use your monitor controls to adjust the image until all 11 shades of grey are visible. If possible, set your monitor to 800x600 pixels, 32 bit colour, 6500°K and a gamma of 2.2. Best viewed with the latest web browser.

This website has been made as simple as possible, java and flash add to download time and are not used.

If you wonder why many of the images are small, it is because this web site started in 1998, before high speed internet
and it would take a bloody lot of work to redo all the images.
