Valle de las Animas

We took a day trip to Valle de las Animas with four of our travel buddies. The climb was intense, but worth it! At first, we had to climb through a deep crevasse. Walking between two huge mountians, with only a few feet on either side, was an excercise in overcomming claustrophobia. The rocks were loose and Za had to breathe deeply and remind herself not to look up several times.



Upon exiting the crevasse, another vast expanse of mountain unfolded. We couldn´t belive how much futher we had to go.



Our group halfway up.

Almost there!

We´ve never seen rock formations quite like this! Za had hoped we could take another route down. After seeing the sharp drop off, she knew there were no other alternatives.

We had sandwiches at the summitt and oggled at the distant capital. As the sun began to set, we played music with our cold fingers. What a perfect day!
