A bus eases away from Santiago and climbs into air that sharpens your breath; by the time you reach the viewpoints, the Andes have sharpened into layers of shadow and light. Farellones’ switchbacks unwind beneath you, and Valle Nevado sits higher, its ridgelines catching the last gold. The tour times those angles so the sun slips behind granite ribs while you stand beside a prepared picnic, camera in hand and cold mountain air pushing at your jacket.
