Qoriorko Climb

I've wanted to climb Qoriorko, the tallest mountain in the area, since I arrived her at the end of 2014. After 17 months of looking up at the summit and wondering what the view was like, I finally found out on Saturday May 14 when Lauren and I spent an entire day climbing up and back down the mountain. Follow the jump for stunning views, mountaintop selfies, and llamas!


Setting out with out goal in sight.
These llamas pointed the path out for us.

Are we there yet?

Looking down at the neighboring mountain's summit.
Yes we are there yet!
Lunch on top of the world: cheese, sourdough bread, and apples. 
Touch that blue sky.
The South Valley of Cusco
(you can barely make out the city in the background)
We live down there!
