Isis®, the mobile commerce joint venture created by AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile US Inc. and Verizon Wireless, today announced plans to roll out the Isis Mobile Wallet™ nationwide later this year, following successful pilots in Austin, Texas and Salt Lake City, Utah.

"Over the past nine months, we have proven the power of an open platform, creating an ecosystem of literally hundreds of partners dedicated to making mobile commerce a reality," said Michael Abbott, chief executive officer, Isis. "As part of our commitment to consumers, we are incorporating feedback from our pilots into the next generation of the Isis Mobile Wallet as we prepare for national availability later this year."
The Isis Mobile Wallet uses near field communication (NFC) technology to allow consumers to pay, redeem coupons and present loyalty cards with a tap of their smartphone. To use the Isis Mobile Wallet, consumers need an NFC-enabled smartphone and a SIM-based secure element, which together make the device Isis Ready®.
Nearly 20 million smartphones in market currently feature NFC technology, with millions more being shipped each month by three of the nation's leading carriers – AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile US Inc. and Verizon Wireless. Thirty-five mobile devices across AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile US Inc. and Verizon Wireless currently support Isis and that number will continue to grow. Support for iPhone, Windows Phone and Blackberry 10 is expected to be introduced later this year.
"NFC technology is important to Samsung and is a standard feature in our flagship smartphones, including our Galaxy S® 4, as a powerful way for sharing through S Beam, and a tool for secure mobile payments with Isis," said Kevin Packingham, chief product officer, Samsung Telecommunications America. "At Samsung, we are committed to providing our customers with the most innovative technologies available and the Isis Mobile Wallet is just one example of that commitment brought to life."
Consumers that activate the Isis Mobile Wallet can pay at retail locations that accept contactless payments, the number of which has steadily grown over the past several years. Twenty-five of the top 100 national retailers have deployed or are deploying contactless terminals. Aite Group projects that 1.3 million locations in the U.S. will have contactless-ready payment terminals by year end, making it the most broadly deployed mobile payments technology at the point of sale.
"Working in partnership with Isis, we have been witness to the power of mobile payments and loyalty," said Rick Kanemasu, vending technology strategy, Coca-Cola North America Group. "More than one-third of active Isis Mobile Wallets users in Austin have loaded a My Coke Rewards card into their Wallet since our pilot began and 90 percent of these are new to the My Coke Rewards program. Coca-Cola is engaging with new and existing customers as never before and we look forward to expanding nationwide with Isis later this year."
"Jamba Juice harnessed the power of mobile commerce by introducing offers to the Isis Mobile Wallet in Austin and Salt Lake City," said James White, chief executive officer, Jamba Juice. "Our offer program was successful in driving incremental foot traffic, increasing the frequency of consumer store visits and introducing Jamba Juice to first-time customers. We are now making plans to expand nationally with Isis so that all our franchisees can enjoy the benefits we have seen in our pilot markets."
Isis will be incorporating key learnings from the successful pilot of the Isis Mobile Wallet in Austin and Salt Lake City into its planned national rollout later this year. Findings from the pilot launched in October 2012 show that:
- On average, active Isis Mobile Wallet users tap more than 10 times per month
- Two-thirds of active users opted in to receive offers and messages from their favorite brands, following an average of seven brands
- Contactless acceptance nearly quadrupled to more than 4,000 locations in Austin and Salt Lake City
- More than 80 percent of transactions take place at everyday spend locations such as quick-service restaurants, coffee shops, gas stations, convenience and grocery stores
- Wallet users engaged in loyalty and offers tap up to two times more frequently than users who only make payments

For example, how are multiple containers within an application impacting each other's performance? If an application's service is degraded, which container is to blame? In the case of an application outage, what was the root cause of the outage?

Shares in Fisher & Paykel Healthcare [NZX: FPH] are near a seven-year high as the maker of breathing masks and respirators continued an 18-month trend of "winning back favour" with investors, according to an analyst
The stock rose 3 percent to $4.09 today, and has steadily climbed 77 percent over the last two years, as it recovered from loss of market share, and a "stubbornly high" New Zealand dollar, Mark Lister head of private wealth research at Craigs Investment Partners told BusinessDesk. Because the Auckland based company exports most of its respiratory products, it is exposed to fluctuations in the currency.
The kiwi has "been high for three years now. It's sort of plateaued, it hasn't gone down, but it hasn't gone up either," Lister said. "If the kiwi dollar fell tomorrow Fisher & Paykel would go up," but investors were increasingly more focused on "what's going on in their offshore market."
The stock is rated an average 'hold' based on a consensus of seven analysts compiled by Reuters, though there's a divided view with four 'buy' ratings, two 'hold' and one 'strong sell'. The analysts' median target price is $4.10.
In November, F&P Healthcare said it expects annual profit of between $90 million and $95 million, though trimmed its predictions for operating revenue to a range of $610 million to $625 million from between $625 million and $645 million on a slightly stronger currency than anticipated.
Craigs' Lister said the company has mitigated the impact of the strong currency "by getting the right product cycle, getting the right products into the right markets at the right time."
This turnaround in their business has caused "investors to change their tune", especially as the market grew more comfortable with a high kiwi, Lister said.
"F&P is still growing in those offshore markets, even though there is a high dollar, they're still seeing growth, so they're able to weather the storm," he said.

Mika Kallio Signs As Test Rider For KTM MotoGP Project
Submitted by David Emmett on
Mika Kallio is to be KTM's test rider to help with the development of their MotoGP bike. The 32-year-old Finnish rider is to make a return to the Austrian manufacturer and work to get the KTM RC16 ready for its debut season in MotoGP in 2017.
Kallio has a long association with the Austrian marque. He rode for them for four seasons both in 125s and 250s, finishing as runner up twice in the junior class, most controversially in 2005, when he lost out to Tom Luthi by five points after his erstwhile KTM teammate Gabor Talmacsi stole the win from him at Qatar. When KTM decided to pull out of Grand Prix racing at the end of the 2008 season, out of frustration at the decision to abandon two-stroke racing in the intermediate class, Kallio was forced to leave, moving up to MotoGP with Pramac Ducati.
After two years in Ducati, Kallio returned to Moto2, where he was once again championship runner up in 2014. He has not had the same level of success since leaving the Marc VDS team, despite starting the 2015 season on essentially the same bike. Approaching the age of 33, and with only mediocre results this season, Kallio may have decided he has a better future testing with KTM. From KTM's perspective, Kallio already has two years in MotoGP with Pramac Ducati, and worked as a test rider for the Suter MotoGP project which ran under the CRT rules in 2012.
Kallio is the latest in a list of names to come up for the position. Nicky Hayden had long been linked to the ride, but the American was keen to stay racing, and so joined the Ten Kate Honda team in World Superbikes for 2016. KTM had also been in talks with the AB Motor Racing team since Assen, with a view to taking Karel Abraham as a test rider, but Abraham was also keen to keep racing, and has a serious ankle injury that is still recovering.
Kallio will be joined by Alex Hofmann, former MotoGP rider and for the past few years, test rider for Aprilia in both MotoGP and World Superbikes. Hofmann joined KTM earlier this year, and will be taking the first ride on the RC16, giving it its first shakedown. Kallio will be charged with trying to push the limits of the bike, to help prepare the RC16 for its race debut in 2017.
Below is the press release from KTM on the signing:
Finland's Mika Kallio returns to KTM next season as test rider for the MotoGP project.
KTM made the decision about one year ago to enter competition in the premier class of MotoGP as of the 2017 season. The company was then faced with the task of making all the preparations for a successful entry into this class of motorsport in a relatively short time. By securing the services of Mika Kallio, staffing for the test team is now completed. A new Motorsport Center, currently under construction will also be ready in mid-2016.
Pit Beirer (Motorsport Director): "In addition to the technical and infrastructure challenges, the topic of personnel was no less important in the first stage of the project. By hiring Mika Kallio we now have our core team for MotoGP and are able to take the next steps. In accordance with our planning, the motor has been running on the test benches since the beginning of July. The next step will be the first roll out with Alex Hofmann, former Grand Prix rider and now commentator for MotoGP on Eurosport."
Mike Leitner (MotoGP Consultant): "We opted for Mika Kallio because of his successful past association with KTM and not least because of his experience and success in all classes. It is not only with us that he has proved his ability as an excellent racer and test rider. He wants, and above all can push himself to the limit and this can be decisive in the development of the KTM RC16."
Mika Kallio: "KTM has played an important role in my career. When I first heard about their MotoGP 2017 plan, I realised that it might be a perfect chance for me to return to the Orange family. I am excited about our co-operation, since I respect KTM's know-how and way of working. I am eager to use my vast riding experience and analytic skills to do an excellent job as their test rider. My heart is set on this project and even though I will miss racing next year, I believe the best times are still ahead."
Mika Kallio joined KTM in the MotoGP World Championship in 2003 and went on to win two vice world championship titles in the 125cc class in 2005 and 2006 before he moved up to the 250cc class in 2007, also with KTM. After taking third in the world championship in 2008, he advanced to MotoGP in 2009, where he was named "Rookie of the Year" in his first season of competition. Following a protracted shoulder injury he returned to the new four-stroke Moto2 class, where he has been successfully competing since 2011 to become a vice world champion again in 2014.

GoPro: Hero3 4K capture at 24fps not yet possible, overheating would pose a problem
GoPro has revealed that the HD Hero3's sensor is powerful enough to capture 4K at 24 frames per second - but that the processor is already running to the max and any more work would cause overheating.
The HD Hero3 features a 4K resolution setting which is limited to either 15 or 12.5 frames per second - rendering it of little use for traditional movie capture, as we highlighted in our Hero3 review.
READ: GoPro HD Hero3 review
Speaking to Tim Bucklin, senior software engineer, at the GoPro Mountain Games in Vail, Colorado, Pocket-lint learnt that the Hero3 sensor could theoretically handle even 720p at 240fps - but that overheating the processor would be a potential obstacle to overcome.
Bucklin explained that the miniature camera has already been designed using material around the lens to draw heat away from the camera's body.
Plenty of technology products use processors that need to be cooled - think of fan-cooled laptops as an example - and have to be designed within certain parameters to ensure their successful ongoing operation, as is the case with the Hero3.
UPDATE: GoPro has provided an update to clarify the company's position on the above copy: "Currently, the sensor is capable of higher frame rates at 4K and 720p ... but the processor is already being pushed to its absolute limits. Our current implementation [in the Hero3] is using both the sensor and processor to their maximum, and our current cooling technology allows us to do just that."

Flag policy for the song competition lists political entities whose flags won't be accepted at the contest, also including Nagorno-Karabakh, Crimea and ISIS.19:18 29.04.16 | 0 comments
Perhaps it is Judaism itself that this corrosive year has flayed naked. Telling us that the Judaism which was created by, for, and in, a relentlessly hostile Diaspora, needs to adapt to a world in which that reality no longer exists. Yes, we were a people hunted, stateless, defenseless, powerless, subject to humiliation and pogrom, exclusion and expulsion and massacre. But the survival mechanisms which sustained us, also produced horrible beliefs about non-Jews, and credos of superiority regarding Jews – a secret arsenal of bigotry and contempt. Now bared for all to experience. If we could see the Jewish world naked, we might well see a new Judaism emerging this new year, a community of faith which fosters compassion and coexistence rather than the bullying, non-Jewish shandas of Beit Shemesh and mosque burnings and no compromise and Avigdor Lieberman. A new Judaism. Stripped of xenophobia and 19th century clothes for 21st century issues. In the long run, it could save the Jewish people from extinction. If we're lucky, it could save Israel as well.

I couldn't resist passing along this beautiful photo! Taken today at Madrid's San Anton church, animal lovers came from all over to have their pets blessed during the feast of San Anton. San Anton, the patron saint of animals, is honored by Catholic churches in Spain — and many priests like Father Juan Manuel Villar perform this doggie ceremony with an aspergillum.
Around The Web
i thought it was st francis of assisi well guess i am wrong, i would love to take gordo and any future pets to an event like that!
That is so cool! There should be more pet-blessing ceremonies across the world!
In Paris, there's a church (christian one) where you can come with your pet 1 sunday of the month because this day, this is a special service for all animals!
That's an adorable picture. If that were Brando, however, that would be in his mouth. :sigh:
Awww, this is so cute. I love the little dog in the picture. This would be really interesting to see.

Liturgy for same-sex blessings published by Church of Scotland
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
The proposal doesn't call this a liturgy for same-sex marriage, but calls it a "Liturgy for Recognition and Blessing of a Civil Partnership". It's part of one of the two options proposed to next month's General Assembly, by the Theological Commission on ministers in same-sex sexual relationships.
The "progressive" option, to allow ministers to be in civil partnerships (and be sexually active), includes this proposed liturgy to bless civil partnerships.
The "regressive" option would ban all ministers from same-sex sexual relationships and the liturgy would not be introduced.
The General Assembly is invited to choose between these two options, but it has the power if it wants to come up with something else, so for example to allow ministers in civil partnerships but not introduce the liturgy, etc.
… and the proposal is that the religious blessing would be held afterwards and separately from the civil partnership ceremony. So certainly very different from a Church of Scotland marriage ceremony, but still a step forward.
It's worth adding that some Church of Scotland ministers have done blessing services for civil partnerships since the first day CPs were available in 2005, but without there being an official liturgy for it.
So its like a pretend marriage then. I'm sure everyone will be very happy with that ? Well done the theological commision, not patronising atall.
from 'no' ' to 'ok, well here's the way to conduct this' is a welcome step forward.
wise choices from scripture, i would have chosen then myself

The Sunrise Preschool on Minton Ave. in Tempe is simply the best daycare I could have ever hoped for! The Directors and their staff are very loving towards the kids; yet also insist that the children follow the guidelines....especially where safety is concerned! The older ki...moreds get to go on an average of 3 field trips a week throughout the entire summer...without costing the parents a single dime, other than your regular tuition fees! They work on a scheduled curriculum, and come home with amazing artwork everyday! I would never even think about changing daycares! I recommend them to EVERYONE!view less

Our baby girl has been going here for almost a month now, and so far we love it! The teachers in the infant room are great, and she really seems to love them. She's happy when I drop her off and just as happy when my husband picks her up, which is great to see. We can also t...moreell that she's playing with a lot of different toys while she's there, as the small variety we have at home don't hold her interest nearly as long as they used to. As a new mom who loves my job, I am so thankful to have found a place for my daughter to play, learn, and make friends while we work.view less
My kids have been attending this location for about a year now and they love it. My daughter is getting ready to go to kindergarten this year and from what I can see, she is ready. And she learned it all from here. Her teachers have been amazing. She's constantly talking abo...moreut the games they play and the things they learn. I couldn't be happier. At first I was concerned because of the cost. But the low rates have nothing to do with their ability to care and provide a service for the kids. I'd recommend this center to anyone.view less

I got cuts and clicks in Cubase5 while playing and changing presets
Sorry to hear that, a work around is to open up two instances and cross fade between them, changing presets with the volume down. This can also yield some interesting blends.
Thx, I was just curious if it happened only here.

text: Duarte, Jorge; Silva, Luís; Sousa Ramos, J. Computation of the topological entropy in chaotic biophysical bursting models for excitable cells. (English) Zbl 1106.92012 Discrete Dyn. Nat. Soc. 2006, No. 3, Article ID 60918, 18 p. (2006). Summary: One of the interesting complex behaviors in many cell membranes is bursting, in which a rapid oscillatory state alternates with phases of relative quiescence. Although there is an elegant interpretation of many experimental results in terms of nonlinear dynamical systems, the dynamics of bursting models is not completely described. We study the dynamical behavior of two specific three-variable models from the literature that replicate chaotic bursting. With results from symbolic dynamics, we characterize the topological entropy of one-dimensional maps that describe the salient dynamics of the attractors. The analysis of the variation of this important numerical invariant with the parameters of the systems allows us to quantify the complexity of the phenomenon and to distinguish different chaotic scenarios. This work provides an example of how our understanding of physiological models can be enhanced by the theory of dynamical systems.

Big Daddy (Radio Rip)
Nicki Minaj Feat. Meek Mill
Nicki Minaj is all set to release The Pinkprint on December 15th, but before she does so, she's got one last track to share with her Barbz tonight called "Big Daddy" featuring Meek Mill.
I'm So Sorry (Alternate Version)
Spenzo Feat. Meek Mill, Young Thug & Maine Man
New Meek Mill verse alert! Since MMG's Philly representative was freed from jail last week, we haven't heard a new verse from him, but that changes now. After sharing a first version of "I'm So Sorry" with Young Thug in October, Spenzo now gives an alternate version that features Meek and Maine Man.
Anybody Wanna Buy A Heart?
K. Michelle Feat. Meek Mill
Meek Mill's absence from rap has been felt since being locked up earlier this year. While we've missed out on his sophomore album in the process, we have heard quite a few new verses from the MMG rapper despite his circumstances. The latest of which is a collaboration with K. Michelle, in which Meek is billed as a feature, but has a considerable presence on the duration of the song. "Anybody Wanna Buy A Heart?" is an R&B-inflected track, which has Meek getting a little more delicate than usual. No word on where this one will land as of yet.
Flexin' On Em
DJ Holiday Feat. Meek Mill, Future, T.I. & Stuey Rock
DJ Holiday comes through today with a big collaboration. Whereas Rae Sremmurd purported a "No Flex Zone," Holiday, Meek Mill, Future, T.I. and Stuey Rock have no shame to flex on 'em. We haven't heard from Stuey Rock in a minute, but he handles the auto-tuned hook on this street banger. The currently-locked up Meek Mill provides a rare verse (at least rare at the moment), as do Future and Tip. The production comes from Dun Deal and DJ Spinz.
All These Hoes
Maino Feat. Meek Mill & Yo Gotti
Maino recently ran into some trouble when a porn star accused the rapper of assaulting her. Her accusations seemed to be true, as Maino later turned himself in to the police and was arrested for a misdemeanor assault. There haven't been any legal developments since the rapper turned himself in, but he's not letting that deter him from the music at least.
Fuck You Mean
Meek Mill Feat. Boosie Badazz
Meek Mill is (most likely) free! The MMG rapper, who went away earlier this year for a parole violation, was apparently freed earlier today, though it has yet to be confirmed. He took to Twitter for the first time in months to tweet "F#@K YOU MEAN BOI," and a song bearing those lyrics was soon to follow. Released in its clean form on St.
Let Me See
Paloma Ford Feat. Meek Mill
Paloma Ford showed up on Meek Mill's single, "I Don't Know" back in May, and now Meek has returned the favor, showing up for two short verses on her new west coast banger, "Let Me See". Despite sounding almost unmistakably like the work of DJ Mustard, the clubby, snap-driven instrumental is provided by Ford's frequent collaborators D&D, a duo she credits with helping her full realize her sound.
Realest In The City
P Reign Feat. Meek Mill & PartyNextDoor
Last week, we were very pleased to premiere P Reign's dope Dear America tape, and tomorrow, the T Dot rapper will release a five track EP of the same name on iTunes. Included on there will be "Realest In The City," a track produced by Boi-1da and The Maven Boys and featuring Meek Mill and fellow OVO affiliate PARTYNEXTDOOR.
She Don't Know
Meek Mill Feat. Ty Dolla $ign
With Dreams Worth More Than Money still awaiting a solid release date, the internet continues to hear new music from the LP. The latest drop, "She Don't Know," features a tight chorus from 2014's hook-man of the year Ty Dolla $ign and bass-heavy production from the one and only DJ Mustard. "She Don't Know" was first previewed back in March via a live performance at CIAA weekend.
I Like It
Meek Mill Feat. Mac Miller
As you all know, Meek Mill's current incarceration is putting a temporary damper on what was supposed to be the fall rollout for his album Dreams Worth More Than Money. Although no release date is now in sight, the Philly spitter has somehow freed a leak from the project. "I Like It" features Mac Miller, who previously linked up with Meek Mill on the official remix of his song "House Party."
Free Meek Mill
Curtis Williams
Meek Mill is currently locked up for a probation violation (and will probably be in jail until September), but despite that, we haven't heard many "Free Meek"s circulating around the hip-hop-osphere. Curtis Williams, of the recently-signed Two-9, is here to change that with a brief offering entitled "Free Meek Mill."
MMG Under God (Tags)
Last week there was some controversy within the MMG crew, when Meek Mill aired out his feelings on Twitter concerning his fellow MMG rapper Wale not properly supporting his upcoming album Dreams Worth More Than Money.
We Dem Boyz (Remix)
Diddy Feat. Meek Mill & French Montana
The other week we heard a preview of Puff's "We Dem Boyz" remix, thanks to footage from the rapper's video shoot for the cut. While the video shoot is still in the works, today Diddy delivers his remix featuring Meek Mill and French Montana.
0-100 (Freestyle) (Meek Mill Diss)
Louie V Gutta
Former Dreamchasers signee Louie V Gutta drops a freestyle over Drake's "0-100" instrumental. Recorded in response to a remix of the same track that Meek recorded earlier this week, Gutta shoots for his boss with venomous bars regarding Meek's authenticity as a street rapper. Produced by Boi-1da, "0-100" has officially replaced Nicki Minaj's "Chi-Raq" as the official freestyle beat of the summer.
I'll Be There
Tory Lanez Feat. Meek Mill & French Montana
Last week we kicked off Tory Lanez' series #FargoFridays, with the movie-inspired and sampled track "The Godfather." The monumental record set the tone for what's to come, as Tory is only releasing fire for these weekly drops.
0 To 100 (Freestyle)
Meek Mill
Drake's "0 To 100" is the new go-to freestyle record right now, thankfully taking over for the overdone "Chi-Raq" instrumental.
I Want The Love (Official)
Diddy Feat. Meek Mill
At the end of May we received a version of Puff's new single, "I Want The Love" featuring MMG's Meek Mill. Since then he's been heavily promoting the upcoming visual for it with teaser clips, and today he returns with the official version of the record. This is Diddy's second single off his new album MMM, following "Big Homie" with Rick Ross and French Montana.
Fuck & Smoke
Trav Feat. Meek Mill & Travis Scott
Trav just released his new mixtape, Push 2, and one track in particular boasts some pretty impressive features. "Fuck & Smoke" collects verses from Meek Mill and Travis Scott, with Scott laying down the hook for the banger as well. Meek is actually the one responsible for breaking up a near altercation between Trav and 50 Cent last summer, and it appears it hasn't affected their relationship.
I Want The Love
Diddy Feat. Meek Mill
Yesterday, Diddy teased fans by dropping off a trailer to his upcoming video "I Want The Love" featuring MMG's own Meek Mill. After only a 24 hour wait, the Young Chop-produced single has found its way onto the internet just in time for your weekend festivities. However, this version appears to be some sort of rip, and not the final outcome. Nonetheless, it definitely needed to be shared with y'all.
I Don't Know
Meek Mill Feat. Paloma Ford
"Don't say my name unless you're suicidal." "I Don't Know" is the first reveal from Meek Mill's sophomore album Dreams Worth More Than Money, which is apparently coming soon. The track features emerging vocalist Paloma Ford on the hook with production from The Honorable C.N.O.T.E. Can you relate to the subject matter here or nah?

Want to see the real Big Sur? The wilderness where mountains dive dramatically into the ocean? A mountain range hidden from Highway 1? Cone peak (5155 ft) is a great route for you. It is one of the most diverse trips I've been on with vast ocean-stretching views, lush redwoods, green waterfalls, wildflower-laden hillsides and a rocky (cone) peak topped with an old fire lookout.
Lassen Volcanic National Park is one of the snowiest places in California and also one of the least visited national parks despite its rich geology and beauty. Around mid-April it was one of few lower elevation peaks with enough snow for a full snow mountaineering accent. The other peaks we had considered near Convict Lake (Laurel and Morrison) now nearly bare.

Halfway through my HCI degree I "saw the light" and moved from a flip phone to an Apple iPhone in 2010 despite being notoriously cheap. The following year I wrote my first iOS app for the device. Since then I've worked at Apple in the iOS division for two and a half years, watched every Apple keynote, been developing in Swift pre-1.0 and worked on Coursera's iOS app while releasing another iOS app on the side…
So why have I been working on Android in Java for the last nine months?
One way of describing mountaineering is, "walking uphill while not feeling very well". Another is a performance sport pushing mental and physical exhaustion. Since last year I've completed two Mt. Shasta (14,180′) routes and a Mt. Williamson (14,380′) summit and I am constantly trying to stay mountaineering shape. For those new to the sport it can feel daunting so I thought I'd share what I do and some advice from the mountaineering textbook "Freedom of the Hills".
On February 5, 2016 I went up to Mt. Shasta City with my friend Michele to attend a free avalanche training from the Mt. Shasta Avalanche Center. Once we saw that low avalanche danger, clear skies and light wind was predicted for the whole weekend we decided to do a summit attempt Sunday morning up the Green Butte route (map 1, map 2, map 3). Spending Saturday night on the mountain somewhere around Green Butte.
You are all set on going to Patagonia, but don't know what you want to do down there yet? First thing to know is there are three main regions: Northern (Lakes District), Central and South. Most people however think of Southern Patagonia when they think of Patagonia. Below you'll find the boots on the ground knowledge I gained from spending three weeks in Southern Patagonia in November 2015.
Argentina's Torres del Paine and UNESCO World Heritage Site is Parque Los Glaciares. This area features its own glaciers, beautiful mountain vistas and contains the "end of the world." Below you'll find the many great experiences available on the Argentinian side of the border…
Activity in Chilean Southern Patagonia centers around Torres del Paine National Park. Torres del Paine itself has many options to experience it, however if you didn't come to Patagonia to experience among crowds I'd recommend the more strenuous or remote options within the park. Below you'll find the many great experiences available on the Chilean side of the border…
