Vicuņa,
hiking the hills
Trail Detail

Home |
|
|
These photos are mostly my way of remembering the
trails that I'm so fond of. So this kind of detail may get to be a
bit much for you. Feel free to hit the 'back' button (but you knew
that)
But if you decide to come along, let's stride out!
|
This is along the route of my favorite trail, which I hiked numerous
times
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The valley vista is always present
|
|
|
|

|
Again, this trail is where I encountered Manuel
|
|
|
|
And looking back a bit
|
|
|
|
Now, following the route that Manuel came from
|
|
|
|
This switchback was one of my favorite spots
Between two folds in the hills, blocked from valley view, I did
vigorous vocal exercises
|

Near the summit of this trail, a panel that rotated,
tracking with the sun
Dunno its function

|
|
|
|
|
|
Stopping for a typical lunch of bread, avocado, goat
cheese, and tomato
|
|
|
|
If goat cheese is pure white, I suppose these are goat
turds, but I'm not sure of that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After hiking the heights, here's one descent that I'm very fond of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the middle distance here is a field where grapes are drying
|
|
|
|
Vicuņa and surroundings are a great area
for the grape used in making Pisco, a brandy-like liquor
|
