Dr. Daddy's Bolivia trip

Photos from Bolivia

Our trip down the Rio Beni via 12m long boat.

Gorge of Paleozoic-Mesozoic rocks on the Rio Beni. The orange is the top of our boat.

Observing river-side geology.

Another Paleozoic-Mesozoic ridge in seen from the boat.

After the Rio Beni we had a few spare days in La Paz and decided to climb Huayna Potosi.

Approaching Huayna Potosi. The view from the road.

One of my favourite views of this imposing mountain.

We started our summit attempt at 2 am and reached the summit at about dawn (6:30). This was the view from the peak (6088m). See the people on the trail down below?

This is another view of the peak. Not much flat space.

On the way back down in the daylight, we could see the amazing glacial formations that we passed in the dark on the way up.

And the crevasses we had crossed.

And the snow fields we had ascended.
