I am heading to Argentina and patagonia from February through March, then on up the coast of Chile to Peru and eventually around the whole continent. Should I lug down camping equipment? I am traveling alone and need to spend as little as possible throughout my journey, but I don't know how dangerous it is as far as the weather and people. Is it worth it?

Where is it best to camp?
Reply to this Everyone tells me camping is pretty safe here, especially near Barioloche. Haven´t heard of any problems from anyone, and I just spent two weeks camping near Veronica (although it was for a volunteer project). But there were other families and people camping nearby, and it seems super safe. I´m certainly gonna camp when I get further south. I´ve heard particularly good things about El Bolson. Can´t wait! So bring your gear. It´s heavy and a pain in the ass, but worth it when you´re in the field. buenas suerte!
