The next day, the three of us walked along the difficult path of Iguaque to the paramo of the Iguaque Flora and Fauna Sanctuary. Here's the park official telling us we're crazy for even thinking about trying, and pointing out how far he thought we would go.
Boy, we’ll show you! Here's Daniel, charging ahead (he said this was his first real hike, do you believe).
Lots of beautiful flowers and epiphytes along the way:
Here is Daniel, trying to figure out the best way to climb the steep trail.
Looks like he made it.
And finally, the Sacred Lake, at 3800 meters.
We thought we were pretty amazing.
Until we noticed that a puppy had followed us the entire way.
No matter. It was a great hike. And that's all for today!
