Abandoning civilisation!



This is our last posting before we depart Huaraz and the backdrop of the Cordillera Blanca early tomorrow for the Cordillera Huayhuash. Acclimatisation continued today as we drove up a very dodgy road out of Huaraz gaining approximately 800m in height. We then climbed/scrambled another 750m on foot to Laguna Churup at 4485m. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, as you´ll be able to see in the attached photo. We´re now back in the luxury of the hotel preparing to leave in the morning. Carnival in Huaraz tonight so we might manage to stay up later than 9pm!
