Huaraz-Santa Cruz Trekking

1st day

Bus Publico!


Engadin ;-) On our way to the St.Cruz Trekk, riding on a bus
for about 2 hours. I hope you like that pic, I hold my 1000Euro
Camera out of the window and just shot some pics, it
was shaking really hard, soon after the lakes we started
to climb up a narrow mountain road. Back in Switzerland you
would only drive up there with a small Subaru and,
of course your HH. We were on a bus.








1st Camp, 3700 m, the green tent is the kitchen/diningroom
and our chill-out lounge area. There was a stove for cooking,
but still it was pretty cold in there. But guide Felix turned out
to be a great cook. Well done. El areiro, the guy with the mules,
Elmer played us some nice andean tunes at night.

2nd day

Tough life! Pretty humid weather. Walking up to the
Paso Union at 4800msnm








Tobbogan


2nd Camp at 4200m. When we arrived it was raining really
hard. We waited in the kitchentent and when it finally stopped,
we had hardly enough time to put up our tents,
when....de repente........


Alpamayo appeared!!


That's another one.


And another one, don't ask me the names!


A sometimes rainy trekk, but hey we saw one of the most
impressive mountains on the continent!! 10-15 minutes ;-)


Cansado y muy feliz!
