Sat, 2 Aug 2008 | By simonefrancis | Views [1418]

We had been trying to contact someone from Canatura (a non profit organisation helping the environment) for the past couple of days, as Juany from Otra Cosa recommended us to visit it. After going to the markets to buy the family some food, then to ... Read more >

The White City and Colca Canyon

Fri, 1 Aug 2008 | By matsmith | Views [829]

A night bus from Nazca brought us to ´the White City´, or Arequipa early in the morning on the 30th July and from the bus station we got a minibus to the hotel. We took a walking tour with Alfredo to see the main sights around the centre, ... Read more >

We went to Celendin... Jerome and I, on our way to Moyambamba. We never have any idea where we will stay, but we always find some nice local´s house over our heads. At the bus station upon arrival I went to the bathroom, and by the time I returned ... Read more >

Ranrapalca

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 | By reilly | Views [508] | Comments [2]

Um, yeah.  High hopes.  Its good to set your goals high, but Ranrapalca became a very far fetched dream after a few days in the Ishinca.  6000 M is a little out of the question right now for this climbing team, but give it a few weeks, and we´ll keep ... Read more >

Ishinca

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 | By reilly | Views [855] | Comments [2]

Two days of crying at BC because of my repeated failed attempt on Tocllaraju, we headed to climb Ishinca.  This being another extremely dificult "high altitude" mountain, we left early and took the slow and heavy approach as opposed to light ... Read more >

Tocllaraju

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 | By reilly | Views [501]

I should have known not to climb with people that I don´t know, who are from a country that has nothing but a moderate incline with a peak elevation of 200m.  Since Nick needed a couple days of acclimitization at BC, I hitched up with a couple of Brits ... Read more >

Urus Este

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 | By reilly | Views [488]

Urus is a mountain that I climbed last year and didn´t know it, but would become more and more familiar with the route over the two weeks we spent in the Ishinca valley.  Round one on Urus was a failed attempt as Nick was not properly acclimitized and ... Read more >

Nazca

Tue, 29 Jul 2008 | By matsmith | Views [768] | Comments [1]

After all the destruction and poverty in Pisco, Nazca's main square seemed wonderful the night we arrived. It took me another day to realise that it is just a little town, which would probably not be worth visiting if it had not been for the famous Nazca ... Read more >
