Trekkers, Nevado Terihuay, Cordillera Urubamba, Ollantaytambo, Peru.

Trekkers walk towards a 14,200 foot pass beneath Nevado Terihuay (17,500 feet elevation), in the Cordillera Urubamba between Lares and Patacancha, near Ollantaytambo, Peru, South America. The moderately strenuous trek from Lares to Patacancha traverses rugged, little-visited country in the Cordillera Urubamba across passes at 13,800 and 14,200 feet elevation. A five hour bus ride from Cuzco reaches Lares, where you can soak in developed hot spring pools. Llamas and horses carried our loads for two nights of camping at 12,500 feet elevation.
