The Green Mountain Club presents:
Hiking and Other Adventures in Southern Patagonia and the Atacama Desert
Sheri and Rich Larsen
Friday, December 16, 7 P.M.
GMC Visitor Center, 4711 Waterbury-Stowe Rd, Waterbury Center

Last January Rich and Sheri Larsen traveled to the southern part of Patagonia, a region that lies in southern Chile and Argentina. They hiked the famous “W” trek in Torres del Paine National Park in Chile, did day hikes in the Fitzroy Range in Glacier National Park in Argentina, walked on a glacier, and searched for wildlife. After their Patagonian adventures, the Larsens traveled to northern Chile to visit the very different landscape of the Atacama Desert. Spend an evening in South America viewing Sheri’s photos and listening to their informative narration.

James P. Taylor Outdoor Adventure Series:
For more than one hundred years the Long Trail has inspired Vermonters to seek adventure in the Green Mountains and beyond. The James P. Taylor Outdoor Adventure Series, named after the man who first envisioned the Long Trail, brings such adventures to you through stories, photographs, and videos. Join us for inspiring presentations that will transport you to mountains and waterways near and far as we celebrate twenty-five years of the Taylor Series — a great way to spend an evening!

Admission is $5 for members and $8 for nonmembers; kids under 12 are free. Tickets are available at the door only. Proceeds support local sections and the GMC Education Program.
