Ep. 31: Ausangate and Rainbow Mountain Trek

Listener Gary Black joins Jeremy to talk about Gary's hike in the Ausangate Nevado high in the Andes of Peru.  Gary tells us how he was able to successfully acclimatize to hike this high elevation circuit of one of the most beautiful ranges of the Andes.  Gary also gives good advice on how to have popular Rainbow Mountain to yourself, even if just for a while.  Jeremy starts the show by telling us about the pastoralists who live in this region.  And we even learn about the minerals that make Rainbow Mountain so beautiful and otherworldly.
