We opted to carry a solar power panel to recharge all our batteries while hiking. Carrying regular batteries for up to 3 weeks would have meant a substantial extra weight.
==Required Skills and CapabailitesCapabilities==The Greater Patagonian Trail requires endurance not only because of the total lenght of the trail but the rather long distances of some trail sections.The first three sections exceed 100 km each without regular resupply points on the route. The hiker needs to plan and carry the correct type and quantity of food for these long stages.
good navigational skills and trekking experience in different terrains.
