Description

Wikipedia

Cerro Campana or Cerro Cristal is a glaciated mountain in the Andes mountain range in Patagonia, located on the eastern edge of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, west of Lake Viedma, and south of the glacier of the same name within the disputed area between Chile and Argentina. For Argentina, the mountain has been part of Los Glaciares National Park since 1937, in the Lago Argentino Department of Santa Cruz Province, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981. For Chile, its western side has been part of Bernardo O'Higgins National Park since 1969, in the Natales commune of Última Esperanza Province in the Magallanes and Chilean Antarctic Region. Its height is 2,094 m (6,870 ft) above sea level, and it is located near Cerro Divisadero, Cerro Mascarello and Cerro Moyano. According to a study by the glaciologist Cedomir Marangunic, the original location understood by the expert Francisco Moreno in 1898 of the mountain is the same as cerro Cristal, being Agostini who misplaced it to the north in the Cerro Divisadero. Marangunic takes as reference a description of the mountain in Moreno's book called "Argentine-Chilean Border - Volume II".
