Just got back from there about a month ago. Even this incredible photo doesn't capture how amazing it looks. I felt like I was approaching something from Lord of the Rings.

That's exactly how I felt - it's a fantasy landscape.

It looks like there's a dragon sleeping on the mountain. Incredible shot!

I was there in February as part of a 3,500 mile motorcycle ride from Pucon in Chile to Ushuaia in Argentina but couldn’t get a shot as nice as this, nice one!

I was there in 2016, and I have photos, and they're perfectly good photos (well, some of them, but I'm not much of a photographer, so that's good for me), and they don't give any sense of what it's like to be there.

One of the most dramatic aspects of the park is the widely different and dynamic terrain. Rolling scrubbed hills diving into glacial lakes which emerge into these massive two toned mountains. It's very unique - very beautiful.

was booked to go there in 2011 but there was a massive fire and they closed it. Never been back :(

How does one get there without spending an absurd amount of money? They are very remote. I'd like to visit one day...

I'm not sure there is a way to go without spending a lot of money. Lots of outfitters are available if you do your homework. You may be able to book flights cheaper if you're flexible. Good luck. The whole Tierra del Fuego area is amazing to see.
