Summary Santiago de Chile, the Atacama - desert on 4500 meters height, the Andes, Tierra del Fuego and the hostile Beagle Channel around Cape Horn are the stations of an adventure journey through Chile, the country at the southwestern end of the world. Thomas Miklautsch and Richard Pichler, two Austrian surf freaks, actually "only" wanted to drive through the eternal ice of the Beagle Channel off the coast of Tierra del Fuego. The result was an eight-week tour-de-force through what is probably the most extreme surfing area in the world. At the end of the world the surfers meet the last three survivors of the Yamanes - Indians, a Chilean Indio tribe that was considered extinct in 1940. At the Beagle Channel, they try to follow the path of Charles Darwin, who documented the life of the Yamanes Indians, with their surfboards. A company that ends almost fatally for the surfers. Tons of icebergs break off the mainland every hour, thunder from the Cordillera Darwin into the sea with a deafening roar, marking the end of the civilized world.
