These are some images from different field trips in Northern Patagonia (Argentina) during 2007-2008. Pictures show beautiful Andes mountains, including the Lanin volcano (3776 m), and lakes Moreno, Lacar and Quillen. We were seine netting and electrofishing to catch Galaxias maculatus, known as inanga here in Tassie and as “puyen chico” in Patagonia.
