Day 7 - Part 4 Machu Picchu

2017年5月23日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

After our nice tour of MP, Mike, about 4 other Lares hikers, and myself went to Sun Gate (about 1000’ higher). The Sun Gate is dedicated to Inti, the sun god. It was supposedly an hour to 1.5 hrs up. I made it in 40 minutes from the first sign post. Of course, I was at the back of our group and huffed and puffed the whole way. Thankfully, I had the walking stick and thankfully, Mike had the other as he tweaked his knee going up. There were not many on the path. When we got to top and enjoyed it for about 15-20 minutes, there was only a total of about 12 people, including us. It was clear and somewhat sunny up top.
