    organic grocery store in BA?

    Check out Casa China too in Chinatown. It is on Arribenos 1/2 a block from Juramento (by the dragon arch). They have many beans, grains, rice, soy products (milk, milanesas, cheese, mayo, etc...), almond milk, lots of wheat free products, etc... Also a great place for spices.

    Any info on Torres del Paine or Fitz Roy?

    I used the same tent! Although we used a tarp the second time in Fitz Roy. Everyone looks at us like we were crazy but not so much when we didnt have a bunch of condensation to shake out in the morning. I don't recommend that though; we are crazy.
