Torres del Paine National Park, Chile: MarineNews' Joe Keefe is on holiday in Patagonia this month. Off the grid; way off the grid. “I keep trying to escape the waterfront, but they keep dragging me back in,” Keefe writes, and today was no different.The 9-mile trek through the Patagonia forests and Rocky Mountains almost took Keefe out. But, before that could happen, a 30-minute boat ride took him and his beautiful wife, Debbie, to the trailhead. They had 4.5 hours to make it to the glacier for the pickup from boat number two.
