A little video showing how it is to descend Huayna Potosi on skies (the 4th time for us in the year 2015), The unstable weather from this "el niño" year offered excellent conditions late in the climbing season.

We are proud to present our new webpage dedicated to the Salar de Uyuni

Whereas this region is a must see, tours on the salar de uyuni and the South Lipez region are great for acclimatizing to high altitude and offer opportunities to climb beautiful volcanoes.
