Parque Constitucion Nacional


So I'm getting a little behind on all of this. About a month ago Kyle, Joy and I went to Parque Constitucion Nacional for a little camping and hiking. It was a very desert like climate but the water you see behind us is called Laguna Hanson. Because this was the only water source around for miles it was an oasis. There was tons of animal and bird life to watch and rattle snakes to look out for!

It was an exciting adventure, we had to do a bit of off roading and even drive through a small lake! We climbed to the top of a mountain, very similar to the one you see in the picture below. Kyle and Joy had me jumping from rock to rock, scurrying through small caves and under brush. The was a "marked trail" that we either lost it or it just ended, but Kyle was insisting on blazing our own trail, which had us go over and around four peaks instead of just one.

It was very hot during the day but at night it got very cold, so cold that we couldn't even sleep. So we decided to only stay for one night instead of two, which was our original plan. Even so, it was a beautiful part of the country, and we are really glad to have made it out there.
