Well this is an odd thing to find up the head of the Rakitata…

Recognised based on my recent trip to Patagonia and confirmed as best as possible (considering this find makes my head spin) based on my Patagonian flora book.

There are no native beech in this part of the valley.

Of course they must be planted, but why???

We left them alive (and to confirm ID rather than commit a botanical crime), but they appear to be spreading through the grassland and will be controlled by contractors heading in to control lupin (unless some information comes to light that suggests otherwise).

Funny the things people have spread to the backcountry eh??
