In search of Puma

Today is my last full day on the Estancia. I have decided to join Mark the puma hunter and his assistant neal for a 20 mile hike in search of puma cubs and fresh kills. There is also a chance we´ll run into the elusive huemul, which has also started giving birth.

The only problem is the lack of food on the estancia. For some reason, everyone has disappeared, including the cooks, so I am surviving on 3 day old bread and an apple. With 20 miles of walking to do, this should make things quite interesting.

On Tuesday I head back up north to catch a flight down to Punta Arenas.

Will write more tomorrow.
