More high elevation hiking




Today, a group of us headed outside Cuenca to Cajas National Park for some serious hiking. It started with a 1/2 hour hike in the Park at 3,200 metres. We circled a nice lake surrounded by mountains.

After that envigorating hike, we headed much higher, to over 4,000 metres for a challenging 2 hour hike. Think about it, 4,000 metres is the height of the TOP of BC's highest mountain, and we were there for 2 hours! Thank God for yoga lungs and yoga legs is all I can say. The scenery was great, and we really enjoyed the hike. Unfortunately, just after the start of the hike, my camera battery died.

Oh well, better to be in the moment enjoying the scenery!
