Ausangate Circuit

This was a six day trek around Nevado Ausangate (6372m) in Cordillera Vilcanota range, almost all the time above 4000m. According to ancient Indian legends the mountain was the place of origin of llamas and alpacas and is still the source of their health and fertility. Even if that is a myth, the range is packed with them and they are apparently doing very well.
