Recommended Footwear for Patagonia (El Chalten Massif)

Thanks Seth!  Did you ever hike in wearing approach shoes and then switch to the cubes when you got to the glaciers?

Echo what Seth said. For Torre Glacier approaches, a pair of running shoes or approach shoes will get you to the camps then your choice of foot wear, from 3 season mt. boot to full shank ice boot depending on your objective. East side/north side of Fitz same thing, though for some casual climbs like on Guillamet it might be worth just hiking in in the 3 season boots all the way to the base. I would bring all the above boots that Seth mentioned, plus a light boot as well (or replace it with your Cube if you aren't planning on getting on any of the steeper ice routes like the Exocet, SuperCanaleta, Domo Blanco, etc.
