What is "OSORNO"?
While in High School in Idaho, Mike Steele met a beautiful girl from Chile and fell in love. They got married, and so began a long and intensive exposure to Chile and its rugged beauty.
OSORNO is the name of a picturesque volcano near Puerto Varas, Chile on Lake Llanquihue. This breathtaking backdrop has been the setting for several memorable fishing trips and family vacations...and hopefully many more to come.
