About

I’m the one writing at Último Largo. I’ve spent years sleeping out in the open, bivouacking on summits and cols, linking long routes and testing gear until it fails or proves itself worth it. This site was born from the need to organise everything I’ve learned on the ground and share it without frills.

Why this project

There’s a lot of outdoor information online, but much of it is written from a desk. Here I try to do the opposite: tell what really works, what I carry in my pack, the mistakes I’ve made and what I’d change next time. No posing, and no recommending gear I haven’t used.

What you’ll find

  • Bivouac and overnighting: how to sleep comfortably and safely outdoors.
  • Hiking and trekking: routes, planning and technique.
  • Climbing: gear, safety and experiences.
  • Tested gear: honest reviews after really using it.

How I recommend gear

I only talk about equipment I’ve used or know well. Some links are affiliate links: if you buy through them I may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. That never changes what I recommend. You can read more in the affiliate disclosure.

A question, a correction or a route you think I should know about? Drop me a line. See you in the mountains.
