What this video covers

The crew traverses the Paso Los Libertadores mountain pass through the Cordillera de los Andes. This high-altitude route connects Chile and Argentina, featuring a series of steep, winding switchbacks known as the Caracoles. The passage requires navigating extreme elevation changes and sharp hairpin turns in a vehicle. Weather conditions at this altitude often include snow and low visibility, necessitating caution during the transit. The journey serves as a land-based crossing between the two countries, distinct from the team's typical maritime travel.
