At the pass, looking back at those turquoise lakes is incredible. What a view. Even with high fever, I felt incredibly lucky to be there. This stage is probably the easiest of the alpine loop.

Morning réflexion. What do you do high in the Huayhuash Mountains when you wake up with a bad fever and that incredible view? Is it worth pushing deeper, or is it wiser to go down and off‑map to reach the next village? Those moments of doubt stay with me, just like the view !

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🏔️🐭 Researchers collected 167 Andean leaf-eared #mice from sea level to the #volcano summits of the central #Andes, over 6,700 meters up, then exposed them to simulated thin air in the lab.
The highland mice turned out to use #oxygen more efficiently in their skeletal #muscle and generate more body heat than their lowland relatives. Genome sequencing also showed adaptations for detoxifying toxins in the very #plants they eat.

Hiking the circuito alpino de Huayhuash, Peru. What an incredible memory. A bit later, a condor took off just below us, gliding for a while at our level along the ridge. A moment I will always remember.

My short wiki article about climber Stuart Vines, second to ascent Aconcagua and first co-ascent of Tupungato, made it out of draft into the main namespace. 🎉

🧵 The world's highest-dwelling mammal isn't a mountain goat or a yak -- it's the Andean leaf-eared mouse (Phyllotis vaccarum), a tiny rodent living atop volcanoes at 22,000+ feet. These mice survive conditions that kill most mammals: oxygen at just 44% of sea level, temperatures as low as -60C, and toxic volcanic plants. A new study in Science reveals their secrets: they burn fat for heat instead of carbs, pack their muscles with mitochondria, and evolved genes to detoxify poisonous plants. The most surprising part? High-elevation mice still interbreed with sea-level populations, yet natural selection maintains the adaptations. This challenges assumptions about what mammals can endure, and suggests feeding ecology matters as much as oxygen in extreme environments. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aec8347 #Science #Mammals #Andes

Los unkus, túnicas abiertas por los laterales empleadas por los varones en el área de los antiguos Andes, constituyen una de las manifestaciones más refinadas y complejas del arte plumario de la época prehispánica. Este excepcional ejemplar textil, confeccionado con llamativas plumas procedentes de la región amazónica y adscrito formalmente al periodo del Imperio Inca entre los años 1470 y 1532 de nuestra era, exhibe en su diseño 4 imponentes figuras aladas con marcados rasgos antropomorfos, colmillos prominentes, grandes ojos y vistosos tocados en color rojo que los investigadores vinculan de forma directa con seres de carácter sobrenatural.
La riqueza iconográfica del atuendo y su extraordinario estado de conservación actual reflejan el elevado nivel de especialización técnica y la profunda carga simbólica alcanzada por los maestros tejedores del Tawantinsuyo, un desarrollo que se vio fuertemente enriquecido tras la llegada e incorporación forzada de hábiles artesanos de origen chimú a los talleres estatales luego de la caída y conquista de la gran ciudad de Chan Chan. La sofisticada manufactura de la prenda se fundamenta en la sujeción previa de los manojos de plumas sobre finos cordones de algodón, los cuales eran cosidos posteriormente de manera superpuesta sobre la tela base para dar forma a una superficie de imponente impacto visual.
El análisis de laboratorio aplicado a la pieza evidencia una notable fusión de tradiciones regionales preexistentes en el territorio andino. El uso de urdimbres pareadas se asocia directamente con las costumbres tecnológicas de la costa norte peruana, mientras que el diseño estructural del cuello y la rigurosa organización simétrica de los motivos corresponden a patrones estéticos de la costa sur y de las regiones de las tierras altas. Toda esta maravillosa integración de conocimientos especializados funciona ante los ojos de la ciencia actual como un valioso testimonio sobre la movilidad de los artesanos, el intercambio cultural y el control estatal ejercido durante la etapa de máxima expansión territorial incaica.

A beautiful hidden gem in the heart of Patagonia. 💦🏔️❄️
A hidden waterfall just a short detour from the Fitz Roy trail — definitely worth the effort to find it.

Laguna Capri, completely frozen on July 10, 2026, with the majestic Mount Fitz Roy rising in the distance. A breathtaking Patagonian landscape, where winter transforms the lake into a vast frozen mirror beneath the legendary peaks of the Andes. 🏔️ ❄️ 🇦🇷
