    @16.30 it takes you up there bec that's the famous base camp of Siula Grande. Look up Touching the Avoid and you'll see how amazing that story is. I'm doing Huayhuash so I can visit this base camp location.
    *Hope I have seen it correctly, excuse me if I'm wrong.

    Good man! Some amazing footage and great shots you captured here. Anyone who's ever been out in nature for a period of time should recognize that you've picked it up very well here. Whimpi. Indonesia.

      Hi Ronnie, thanks for leaving your comment. I appreciate it. I did four multi day hikes in Peru last July. From Huaraz there are many excellent treks to do. The Alpamayo is very challenging, but another trek to consider when in the area.

    Awesome vid! How heavy was your backpack? And what foods /how much water did you pack?

    • @CaryMercer
      @CaryMercer  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, and thank you! I didn't weigh it, but I'm thinking around 12-13 kilos. I think I had around 2-3 kilos of food. I filtered my water, so I wasn't walking with much water most of the time.

    Do I have to get to the trailhead through a company? Or can I just rent a car and drive there?

    • @CaryMercer
      @CaryMercer  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I'm not sure about renting a car. I would think that you could hire private transportation to get there. I booked transport with a company and basically joined with a larger group tour to get to the trailhead.

    Which company did you used to get to trailhead ?

      Hi, I used a company called Andean Summit and they arranged for me to join a larger group for the bus ride. I think it was around 80 soles.

    Amazing Drone shoots Cary - some of them was like what 6000 m ? Wow ( I could not control well my Mavic Mini )
    The trail you were not sure about it was San Antonio Pass (one of the best viewpoint in this mountains) You have also missed Santa Rosa Pass and some other amazing locations
    You can check my videos I just started series from our 12 days Trek

      If I had not been sick, I think I would have really enjoyed seeing those other viewpoints. Thanks for the information, and your comment. Take care.
