Knees a breakin, heart’s a taken

Had an amazing adventure on the Salkantay trail. The whole adventure was fabulous. You tour through some of the most beautiful scenery that you will ever see.
I was blown away by the crazy views of the glaciers on the first and second day. This crew works their butts off to support you. On the fourth ... Continue Reading

Chi chis

This was certainly quite the adventure. I had previously suffered from altitude sickness in the US, at lower heights than we reached on this trek.
That had me nervous going in, but the crew leaders were very well equipped and advising on how to head off symptoms. I did not have much more than a headache the ... Continue Reading

Brits adventure!

This was on the bucket list! Lesley and I have wanted to do this since our 40th birthday, eleven years later here we are!. From landing in Lima we haven't stopped. At the briefing before we arrived to find a lot of very young people, this was intimidating, we got up very early the next day and set off, nervous ... Continue Reading

That aside once we set off the next morning it was an amazing adventure , at times I wanted to throw down my walking poles and cry but due to Marcos ... Continue Reading

Barely survived!!

What a beautiful country! The glaciers are by far the shining point on this trek, completely worth the extreme hiking. I did get sick (elevation? I took the medicine) midway through the hike which dampened things a bit. However, for my first trip out of the United States I still think this was a good choice. The Hiking is a ...

Inka-pacitated!

Having never experienced a trek of this length / duration, I wasn't quite sure what to expect, especially in a drastically new location than ones I had visited before.
This will be a difficult trip to forget. The insane change in scenery and environment from the beginning to the end of the trek was just one ... Continue Reading

Bones survived!

This was a spectacular trip. A peak adventure for me. The porters were amazing, not only carrying some of my stuff, the carried an entire kitchen. They even baked us a Mother's Day cake on Sunday, our toughest day.
Equipment was great too. Spacious tents and warm with their rain flys on. It gets cold at night ... Continue Reading
