Llamas in Penaya
These Llamas would carry our gear from Penaya to our base camp for climbing Illimani, the mountain seen in the background. Penaya is home to most of our Bolivian staff.

[basecamp]
Illimani Base Camp
This is our base camp for Illimani. The soft flat ground and excellent scenery made it a favorite among our camps.

Illimani High Camp
Our high camp for Illimani, at over 18,000 feet, was the highest place we slept on this trip, but not for long, since we were getting up at 3:30 AM.

Sunset from Illimani High Camp
The views from Illimani High Camp were spectacular, perhaps even better than from the summit. Huayna Potosi is seen in the distance in this sunset view.
