Torres Del Paine National Park: Day 3

After two nights camping below the Torres, it was time to head west to the 'middle of the 'W' and Los Cuernos camp. It was a rather flat hike of 11 km on an absolutely pristine bluebird day. Though that would soon change. After midnight, the weather succumb to the mountain gods and the infamous Paine winds attacked our mountainside camp for the remainder of the night.
