Techado Negro is a mountain in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina.

Description

Techado Negro, also known as Cerro Techado Negro, is a 2,152-meter-elevation (7,060-foot) summit in the Andes. The peak is located four kilometers (2.5 miles) southeast of Fitz Roy and five kilometers (3.1 miles) west-northwest of El Chaltén, in Los Glaciares National Park of Patagonia.[2] Precipitation runoff from the mountain's slopes drains to Viedma Lake. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,510 meters (4,954 ft) above Laguna Torre in 1.5 kilometers (0.93 mile), and 1,250 meters (4,100 ft) above Laguna Sucia in 1.5 km (0.93 mi). The first ascent of the summit was made by Sergio Bossini in 1961.[3] The descriptive Spanish toponym Techado Negro, which translates as Black Roof, was applied by Louis Lliboutry in 1952.[4] The nearest higher peak is Mojón Rojo, 1.22 kilometers (0.76 mile) to the west-northwest.[2]

Climate

According to the Köppen climate classification system, Techado Negro is located in a tundra climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and cool summers.[5] Weather systems are forced upward by the mountains (orographic lift), causing moisture to drop in the form of rain and snow. This climate supports the Rio Blanco Glacier on the north slope of the peak. The months of November through March offer the most favorable weather for visiting or climbing in this area.[6]
