The lake in El Calafate is a really pretty turquoise colour.
The lake at the back, by the mountains, not the one in the front.
Unfortunately it’s really hard to get a picture of.

Because from most places it’s just a sliver of lake on the horizon.
And if you get close to the lake the turquoise is still a tiny line on the horizon.
That disappears entirely when the island is in the way.
It’s narrow even if you zoom in.
When you get up higher it’s wider but not as bright.
But it’s there if you zoom in.
When you get way up it covers more of the lake.
Matt made Kerri climb really high but you could barely see the lake from the top.
