MP trek day 2

At 4h30 our guides woke us up with coca tea, we had 40 minutes to get everything ready and go for breakfast. A lot choices during breakfast to start the hardest day of the trek. We started at 6 with a lot of layers against the cold. As the sun rose we have shed our clothes. 3 hours and 3000 ft of elevation later we reached dead women's pass, the highest point of our 4 days (13800 ft).
While we took our time coming down the porters and chefs were sprinting passed us to beat us and prepare already our lunch.
After lunch we came on the real original inca trail and we had to go 1500 ft up again. After pictures on the top of that climb we went down towards our camp for the night, but not before stopping first at a beautiful archeological site.
Our campsite for this night had really stunning views and we enjoyed also a spectacular sunset and afterwards a sky full stars. At 7.30 pm we were in our tents and sleeping bags ready for another nigth on the inca trail.Read more
