Huaraz 15.09

Hola chicos!

We just came out from our treck in the high Cordillera Blanca and.. we found our burritoooooooooooooo ! Without Samuel (this is the burrito’s name) we would never make it to treck all Santa Cruz way long…our bagpacks weight all in all more than 40 kg! As we knew before the areeiro (the burrito’s owner) came along with us, but we were prepaired and rented a tentand bought food just for him ;) About the treck…what can we say…just amazing! The highest sumit - Punta Union, is 4,700 meters high. You feel like camping on the roof of the world :)) From there we can see what was named once the most beautiful mountain in the world: Altamayo! Yeah this one we didn’t climbed. it takes you a lot of experience and (heavy!) equipment for snow to do that …maybe next time (if we’ll survive the patagonian trecks, heheh just kidding! )

    Que onda, po?! Paulita, here Zensisk sending you and our friends a big hug! When I last went to Chile I took a “burrito” with me which I left at the Cordilleira as a present for Lukas. Check with Gio if he has it and take a picture with it! I’d recommend you to go trough La Serena and on the way stop at Pisco, that region is beautiful and you can reach it during the day after a long travel by night from the desert. Hitchhiking is also possible. Then Viña del Mar, Valparaiso (can be dangerous@night), etc… I drove down to Talca through the hill and If you can stop at Pichilemu. Well, you’ll see… Viva Chile mierda! If you go south to Patagonia I have a friend there who’s a tourist guide in Punta Arenas. beijos
