    Ground control to major Tom

    Epic Andean adventure

    Such a great Inca Trail trip, far surpassed my expectations. Four hard days of high altitude trekking is not for the faint-hearted, but incredibly rewarding. The trail leads through several ancient Inca sites enroute to Machu Picchu, each displaying unique architecture with a story to tell. But for me the archaeology took second place to…
