Here are some impressions from our trip…

Since 2003, geologist and paleontologist dr. jorge calvo has been digging and researching at this location. Several of his finds as well as some replicas of dinosaurs are exhibited in his mostly privately financed museum. To all overlanders: the lake nearby is a perfect place to stay overnight.

we left the atlantic coast and drove towards the andes to the city of neuquen. Nearby is the valle de la luna rojo, (red moon valley) a great place to watch the sunset and rise. And of course the stars at night…

Why are there no people on the beach? one reason is that even at the beginning of december the bathing season has not yet started, and the other is that it is nudist beach. One of only two in argentina and it’s a no go to take photos of people in this area.

At playa escondida there is not so much artificial light and so the night sky is getting dark enough to take photos.
