Neither of us slept very well and I had a headache. John got me
some nurophin at 4:30am, I also felt a little queasy when I turned
over. However when I got up at 6am all good.
Long switchbacks with a car over the edge. Flat valley floor with yellow grass lots of cattle.
After shopping in Huaraz we drove through a lovely high (400m alt) open valley with mountains covered in cloud.
We descended about 4500m in 3hrs - about two Koscuiscos!
We finally found a
small road to get down to the river and camped in the river bed. A
family were by the river so I went over the mum and dad were in the
water finding yabbies under rocks.
Tried to drive up the old road above the
tunnel but the road got a bit narrow from rock falls. Started to snow
a little and the road became impassable so turned back and went through tunnel. Popped out the other side of tunnel to more snow flakes and poor visibility.
Park gate in the middle of park - cost us s/30 - no receipt - hmmm?
