Fitz Roy rendered as a Contours poster, tight contour lines around the granite spires
Contours export for Fitz Roy, as rendered by the creator.

Monte Fitz Roy, also known as Cerro Chaltén, stands on the border between Argentina and Chile at the edge of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. Its Argentine side lies in Los Glaciares National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981, above the village of El Chaltén. The explorer Francisco Moreno named it after Robert FitzRoy, captain of HMS Beagle.

The curated map area is small, about 18 by 22 kilometers, taking in Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre with the glaciers between them. In the Contours preview, the lines pack tightly around the granite spires and open out over the glaciers and the valleys that lead down toward El Chaltén.

The preview is the Contours export for this map area, generated from public global elevation data. In the creator you can change the contour interval, colors and title, move the area, or switch to Ridgeline or Strata. Choose 3D Terrain Model to download the peaks as a printable STL or 3MF; the download credits the elevation source used.
