VIDEO - Arriving to Rod’s house in “El Ingenio” at Cajón del Maipo, and
getting introduced to his mutts “Walaila” and “Mudo”.
SANTIAGO - Once in Chile, Rod and I went straight to try out our gear in the mountains, looking for the most rugged paths we could find near the Santiago Area. We chose Cajón del Maipo (below), Rod’s current town at the time.

“Maipo” is the name of the main river in this canyon, and it’s the reason for agriculture to be so intensive here, especially for wine production. It’s an awesome spot about an hour drive east from Santiago, into the Andes.
It’s just an insane spot for riding. You gotta love it.
