Evidence (2023-08-09): Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre are two of the most famous massifs in South America and are legendary in the world of mountaineering. In their shadow lies the town of El Chaltén whose history was forged alongside this majestic landscapes. El Chaltén´s myths, and the legendary characters that inhabit them, are a major draw for any adventurous soul looking for an excuse to travel to these peaks at the tail-end of the planet. [...] The 3405m granite shield of Mount Fitz Roy and 3133m spire of Cerro Torre dazzle between blue skies and brilliant white glaciers. The former is located to the west of the Southern Ice Field; the latter on its eastern border. Both massifs and their respective summits have, and continue to be, the main objective of many climbers. In 1937 the first attempt to reach the summit of Mount Fitz Roy was made by an Italian expedition, Vicente Labate relates. It was composed of Giovanni Gilberti, Ettore Castiglioni and Leo Dubosc, and led by Count Aldo Bonacossa. During their attempt on the peak they camped at what they baptized the Capri Lagoon as well as the Los Tres Lagoon (The Three Lagoon). Both of these are iconic sites for any visitor to the El Chaltén area today.

Evidence (2022-11-27): Carved out by glaciers eons ago, Mount Fitz Roy towers over a treasure trove of awe-inspiring trails in Patagonia’s stunning landscape. Fitz Roy sits right on the border between Argentina and Chile, guarding "Argentina’s Trekking Capital," El Chaltén. Winding through the heart of UNESCO World Heritage site, Los Glaciares National Park, the Fitz Roy trek is the gateway to the walls of Patagonia’s iconic granite massif. The serrated peaks pose as a majestic backdrop on many of the national park’s hikes, and the Fitz Roy trek is no different. [...] Mount Fitz Roy is located on the border between Argentina and Chile, part of the Andes Mountains in southwest Argentina. The mountain rises from the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, a 13,000 square kilometer expanse covered in flowing glaciers, fjords and mountains stretching to the most southern tip of the South American continent. The massive ice sheet contains the third largest amount of freshwater ice, and the largest in the southern hemisphere outside of Antarctica. This also means Patagonia is one of the windiest and wettest places on Earth.

Evidence (2013-01-01): Monte Fitz Roy (also known as Cerro Chaltén, Cerro Fitz Roy, or simply Mount Fitz Roy) is a mountain in Patagonia, on the border between Argentina and Chile. It is located in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, near El Chaltén village and Viedma Lake. It was first climbed in 1952 by French alpinists Lionel Terray and Guido Magnone. By elevation Monte Fitz Roy is # 1 out of 2 in Monumento Natural Provincial Cerro Chalten # 3 out of 838 in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina # 4 out of 537 in Provincia de Última Esperanza # 4 out of 1179 in XII Region of Magallanes and Chilean Antarctica # 2 out of 124 in Los Glaciares National Park By prominence Monte Fitz Roy is # 1 out of 2 in Monumento Natural Provincial Cerro Chalten # 4 out of 838 in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina # 22 out of 10580 in Chile # 4 out of 537 in Provincia de Última Esperanza # 6 out of 1179 in XII Region of Magallanes and Chilean Antarctica # 1 out of 124 in Los Glaciares National Park # 38 out of 16361 in the Andes (Chile, Argentina)
Claim: Monte Fitz Roy is a territory of Chile (Monte Fitz Roy, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2021-06-22): It’s a very small, touristic village located beyond the northern end of Lake Viedma and within the Los Glaciares National Park 200km north from El Calafate. Originally, the indigenous Tehuelche people named the high-jagged peak, now called Mount Fitzroy, as El Chalten, which means "smoky mountain". Considering that for most of the year Mount Fitzroy is shrouded in mist the "smoky mountain" name is appropriate. However, the peak was re-named Mount Fitz Roy after Captain Robert Fitzroy of Charles Darwin’s ship "The Beagle" (Charles Darwin being an important and historic scientific naturalist who came to the southern shores of Patagonia), but the name El Chalten was adopted by the settlers as the name of the village. The main attraction – Mount Fitz Roy, dominates over the village of El Chalten, reaching a height of 3,405m. However, there are a number of dramatic-looking peaks that fill the horizon, but one in particular is awe-inspiring; it is the vertically-sided Torre. This is a jagged-formed mountain, a little like "the Shard building" in London, but natural, reaching a height of 3,102m. In the "foothills" of these towering, snow-topped mountains are lagoons, glaciers and waterfalls interconnected by several trekking trails.

Evidence (2024-01-01): Argentina’s trekking capital, El Chaltén, sits at the base of Mount Fitz Roy and attracts hikers and climbers from all over the world to explore the adjacent wilderness of forests, glaciers, and of course, its world-famous mountains! [...] This is your chance to get up close to the iconic and imposing Mount Fitz Roy and trek one of the most iconic day hikes in the world. While this trek is steep in places, the spectacular views once you reach the top make it totally worth it. Unlike other outfitters, we transfer you to the trailhead, around half an hour's drive from El Chaltén, meaning you do not back-track on the same trail. You will probably take lunch at Laguna de Los Tres, whilst witnessing one of the most impactful sights in Patagonia: Mount Fitz Roy. The trek continues through a variety of different landscapes of forests, crystal clear streams and lagoons, ending up once more in El Chaltén in the early evening.

Evidence (2022-01-08): Stay on the road long enough, and one is bound to have a disappointing experience, particularly after arriving at a place with rather lofty expectations. Such, sadly, was our experience in El Chalten, home to the majestic Mount Fitz Roy. Fitz Roy is to Argentina what Torres Del Paine is to Chile – an unbelievably magnificent and truly iconic peak ( or set of peaks ); in fact the two are geographically not far apart, both set in beautiful national parks and both attract hikers and mountaineers from all over the world. Both can be a little shy, often hiding behind the ever present Patagonian clouds, but while the towers of TDP ultimately revealed themselves to us in their full glory, we were not so fortunate with Fitz Roy. The lesser peaks we did see and almost had the largest peak show itself, but just not quite. Bummer ! While still a mystical image even while partially shrouded this is one that people come from far and wide to see. Two and half days in El Chalten where we did manage a few nice hikes, and saw some amazing condors ……. but never saw the "full Fitz Roy".

Evidence (2024-07-02): On 16 December 1998, an agreement between Argentina and Chile was signed to redefine the border line from Mount Fitz Roy and Mount Daudet and finish with the historical dispute. However both countries didn't agree in the section between Mount Fitz Roy and Mount Murallón, and the border is still pending to be defined.

Evidence (2023-03-27): Monte San Lorenzo (3706m) is the second highest mountain in southern Patagonia, but being both remote and often cloud covered this isolated and impressive peak sees little of the limelight that its more famous neighbours such as Monte Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre (190km distant) experience. A chance encounter with United States peak bagger Sean O’Rourke (Dr Dirtbag) back in Araucanía and subsequent correspondence led to Sean putting this mountain on our radar. Sean suggested that attempting to access the mountain’s climbing base camps might be our sort of bikepacking adventure. The Chile/Argentina border traces a line across the middle of this mountain, and it’s climbed from both countries, with base camps in each, which, as the crow flies, are only 17km apart. But to travel between them legally is a journey of 330km. While the map suggested that a 4WD track crossing the border fairly close to the two camps might be a convenient shortcut, we weren’t keen to make an illegal crossing.

Evidence (2018-11-28): Cerro Fitz Roy in contrast to Cerro Torre sits at 3,405m and was first climbed in 1952. It was discovered by Argentine Explorer Francisco Moreno (of Perito Moreno fame) and named after Robert FitzRoy who captained the HMS Beagle, the same ship Charles Darwin sailed on his evolutionary escapades, much of which was along the Patagonian coast. It is still regarded as one of the most technically difficult mountains in the world to climb. [...] Large groups were coming down the mountain so it was difficult to progress freely. Fitz Roy is the most popular hike in El Chaltén. Most looked relieved to be descending, many were still wrapped up warmly from the lookout. The trail was a mix of boulders and roughly made stairs using the available rocks. Our hike thus far had revealed Argentina spend more effort on trail markings and maintenance than their Chilean neighbours, we even passed a work crew fixing up one particularly slippery gravel section by cutting in some stairs.

Evidence (2021-03-13): Mt. Fitz Roy is one of the most appreciated peaks by mountaineers worldwide. Its altitude is 3,405 m. Mount Fitz Roy original name is Chaltén, that in Tehuelche dialect means "smoking mountain". This is due to a rare aeolic phenomenon that makes its top always appear as it was surrounded by clouds, which gives the mountain a smoking volcano look. [...] Cerro Fitz Roy (long trail)

Evidence (2012-06-04): Argentinians to stake their claims to the border (still in dispute here with Chile) and to accommodate a growing clientele of climbers and trekkers. I did about 110 km. of hiking here in three and a half days just walking out of my hosteria. The main trails led to viewpoints at Laguna de los Tres (Monte Fitz Roy), Laguna Torre (Cerro Torre), and the Loma del Pliegue Tumbado (both). All my hikes began in the arid but sunny Patagonian steppe, ascended through rolling savannahs, passed through beech forests turning red, crossed glacial streams and peat bogs, then reached alpine fell fields and finally extended beyond the vegetation zone to glacial moraines or exposed summits. Most days winds were a constant 50 - 70 kph, with gusts at least double that at Laguna de los Tres, where I was almost blasted off the mountain. It was off-season, but there were a few other hikers about. The weather around the mountain peaks was its usual self, unlike the blue-sky calendar pictures you see of the area, so I always counted myself lucky when it cleared just a little bit.

Evidence (2024-01-01): The First Ascent of the East Face of Cerro Murallón in Patagonia THE IDEA of attempting Cerro Murallón came to us way back in 2010, even before my first trip to Patagonia. Matteo "Berna" Bernasconi and I both were looking for a big adventure. We were not afraid of failing, just wanting to live the full Patagonian experience. [...] In seven years of trips to Patagonia, Cerro Murallón was my wildest adventure by far. The world felt far away, and I felt small and exposed to the power of nature. I’m looking forward to more expeditions like this, where the climbing, though most important, is still only one of many aspects forming a complete adventure.

Evidence (2024-07-29): The Southern Patagonian Ice Field section of the border is the last remaining border issue between Chile and Argentina. On August 1, 1991, the governments of Chile and Argentina agreed on a borderline, but the agreement was never ratified by the Argentine legislature. Later, in 1998, both governments agreed to redraw the borderline between Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Murallón[12][13] Section A (between Cerro Murallón and Daudet) and small part of B (from Fitz Roy to a point defined to the west) was drawn, however, they also agreed that section B (from Fitz Roy to Murallón) would wait until completion of a detailed 1:50,000 scale map of the area with further negotiations. To date, this one section remains the final non-concluded boundary section and has been an irritant in Argentina-Chile relations.

Evidence (2024-01-01): An Epic New Route on Cerro Murallón in Southern Patagonia [...] The Cerro Murallón project is born from a conversation with Patagonian veteran Bruno Sourzac, who attempted the east face of the peak in 1999. When I return to the apartment with a photo of the southeast pillar, the team is super motivated. Such an amazing unclimbed line! From then on our daydreams are fed with visions of epic climbing on this sharp-edged pillar, floating in the clouds in a far, far-away land of mineral and ice. Murallón towers above the Patagonian Ice Cap to the south of the well-traveled peaks of the Chaltén massif. Since 1961, five routes have been climbed on the mountain, and the true summit has been reached only two or three times. [See Climbs and Expeditions for Cerro Murallón’s climbing history.]

Evidence (2024-08-13): The indigenous people of the province are the Tehuelches, who despite European exploration from the 16th century onwards, retained independence until the late 19th century. Soon after the Conquest of the Desert in the 1870s, the area was organised as the Territory of Santa Cruz, named after its original capital in Puerto Santa Cruz. The capital moved to Rio Gallegos in 1888 and has remained there ever since. Immigrants from various European countries came to the territory in the late 19th and early 20th century during a gold rush. Santa Cruz became a province of Argentina in 1957. [...] In the Province there is a border dispute with Chile in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field,[7][8][9][10] in 1898 the border was defined and wasn't objected during the 1902 Arbitral award of the Andes which defined most of the border on the current Province territory. Both experts, Francisco Pascasio Moreno from Argentina and Diego Barros Arana from Chile agreed on the border between Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Daudet.[11] However the border started being questioned by Argentina later on which started the dispute between both countries. In 1998 a border redraw is agreed, being pending to this day the part between Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Murallón,[12] however a new border was drawn between Cerro Murallón and Cerro Daudet.

Evidence (2012-04-14): Cerro Murallón is a glacier mountain of the Andes, in Patagonia, located on the eastern edge of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, southwest of Lake Viedma, at the border between Chile and Argentina. On the Argentine side, the hill has been part of the Los Glaciares National Park since 1937, in the Lago Argentino Department in the Santa Cruz Province, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1981. On the Chilean side, it has been part of the Bernardo O'Higgins National Park, since 1969, in the commune of Natales in the Última Esperanza Province in the Magallanes and Chilean Antarctica Region. According to some sources its height is 2,656 meters (8,714 ft) above sea level,[1] and according to others it is 2,831 meters (9,288 ft) above sea level.[2] Cerro Murallón is named for its immense granite wall it presents.[3] Cerro Murallón was photographed for the first time by the Salesian missionary Alberto María de Agostini in 1949,[4] and its first ascent was made by Eduardo García, Cedomir Marangunic, Eric Shipton and Jack Ewer on January 24, 1961, on its west face.

Evidence (2024-08-26): - Section B: from the summit of Fitz Roy to Cerro Murallón. From the summit of Fitz Roy, the line will descend along the watershed to a point at coordinates X=4,541,630 Y=1,424,600. From there, it will continue in a straight line to a point located at coordinates X=4,540,950 Y=1,421,200. Then the line will follow the parallel of the site to the west and will be drawn in accordance with the Protocol on Replacement and Placement of Landmarks on the Chilean–Argentine Border of 16 April 1941 and in the Plan of Work and General Provisions governing the Chile–Argentine Joint Boundary Commission. In the area determined between the parallels of South Latitude 49º10'00" and 49º47'30" and the meridians of West Longitude 73º38'00" and 72º59'00", the Chile–Argentina Joint Boundary Commission must draw up a chart at a scale of 1:50,000 in order to demarcate the boundary, in that sector the Additional Specific Protocol on Shared Water Resources of 2 August 1991 will not be applied.[30] This sector corresponds to a rectangular territory that goes from a few kilometers north of the summit of Fitz Roy to Mount Murallón, in which there is an area without boundary demarcation. Within this area, however, the agreement itself demarcated the boundary from Fitz Roy to a few kilometers to the southwest (point B), and, from the same mountain to the north, it was defined by means of the 1994 Laguna del Desierto arbitration award.[31][32][25][26][33]

Evidence (2024-10-09): The start was... bureaucratic. They needed to get permission for the Los Glaciares National Park, within which Cerro Murallón rises to the west of the Upsala Glacier. Then, after sailing up Lake Argentino for 3 hours, they reached Estancia Cristina. From here they began the tedious march back and forth (3.5 hours each way) transporting all their gear to Rifugio Pascale that acts as the base for the Upsala glacier, before heading on towards Cerro Murallón. The gear had to be transported first to the glacier lip and then, weather conditions permitting, to below the face. Yes, because the weather was truly Patagonian, like it hadn’t been for years. I.e. it "stormed" for 20 days. Until 1 February, when the trio finally moved below the East Face to make the most of the good weather window, on the basis of a 4-day forecast, subsequently reduced to 2. Until that point, they had never even caught a glimpse of the face…
