In this part of the world, I often can't find the right 3:2 shots to tell the story. Thus, I have chosen a slightly different format for this presentation - the panorama. The wide angle lets you to look around the landscape. If you want to enjoy those in high resolution (some of the have over 10kpix horizontally and that's still scaled down from the original, as they were taken with a 24mm lens on a 1.6x crop camera), feel free to download some from my Picasa album. The following selection covers the first half of our trip to the Argentinean 6000ers, with Cerro Calaste, Nevado Quewar and surrounding areas - the actual ascent of Bonete is however relegated to the second part, which will come soon(tm).

Nice pics, although I grew up in this kind of landscape so I've seen too much of it. I prefer a little bit of water in all my nature scenes

Those are absolutely fantastic shots, but I was expecting to see sexy Argentinian girls (provocative title :-P).

Awesome shots!!

I have the same pic of Puente del Inca (well, everybody who's been there has it ), but covered with snow... beautiful. That place holds a special place in my heart, among my favourite memories from my childhood was doing "culipatín" there ^.^

How was temperature there? Pics show like 40°C and there is snow on some pics.

I was at Zillertal (Austria) for Snowboarding few years ago. I sweated to death while there was -29°C on highest mountain with clear sun.

The altiplano is really arid, but that doesn't mean it's warm. Surely, it's over 30 degrees (Celsius) in the lowlands all the time in summer, but these pictures all show places that are over 3000 meters above the sea level, some of them even more. Here in the northern part, it was pleasant even at 5800 - with temperatures slightly above zero, but on the more southern mountains, it was one day really chilly even in 5000 and it was like -15 in the night. On the other hand, in Antofagasta de la Sierra, which is only 3300 it was unpleasantly warm during afternoon hours - the air is not too hot (maybe 20), but the Sun is just scorching.

We have chosen high summer even though we all hate hot weather, because in other parts of the years, the cold above 6000 meters is just unbearable. The "frozen desert" around Bonete was a really weird experience. It indeed dose look like you are supposed to feel hot from looking around you, but you are freezing instead!
