What was your most memorable moment?

Looking up through the clear ceiling skylight of our Ecocamp igloo in the middle of the night, in absolute darkness at the base of the majestic Torres del Paine mountains and seeing the Southern Cross shining brightly directly above me! I was now living in the Southern Cross instead of observing the stars at last!
