Rainboqw Mountain
After seeing a gazillion photos of the "Rainbow mountain" on instagram we finally went ourselves to see it in person. While the landscape on the way to the mountain was fantastic and the mountain itself was beautiful, though not as spectacular as many would claim, the amount of other tourists in the area was completely overwhelming and took a lot away from our time there.
Still i don't regret the experience, it certainly was. Especially getting back up to 5200 metres again.CuscoLandscapePeruSouth AmericaTravelSkyRainbow MountainMulticolorhigh altitudeVincincuna

Stop, Watch, Take it all In
A chance to take in the amazing scenery at the high-altitude Pastoruri Glacier in Peru.
From Wikipedia:
The glacier is around 8 square kilometres (3.1 sq mi) in size, and around 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) long with a terrestrial snout ending.[1] The glacier is currently retreating quickly. It has lost 22% of its size and 15.5% of its ice mass in the last 30-35 years.[2]
The glacier occupies an Andean peak around 5,250 metres (17,200 feet) above sea level, and so has steep, cliff like edges, with heavily crevassed areas characteristic of a cirque glacier.[1]
The area and the glacier is usually covered in soft snow and is a popular area with tourists, snowboarders and ice climbers.South AmericaPeruLandscapeGlacierhigh altitudeBarrenRockManMaleOne PersonSittingViewWatchTravelTourismBlueBrownSkyCloudyLandmarkAltitudeAndesPasto Ruri GlacierHuascaranNational ParkWonderIceMeltWaterColdRockyHighExtremeAdventureDaytime
