January 9 - Around Laguna Verde We Go
It’s the 9th of January and today is our day to walk the complete distance around Laguna Verde Lake. We are mid way on that trip now and it’s really been a very beautiful hike.
We took our shoes off, put our sandals on, in some cases waded through the mud and the small streams for quite a distance. There were places where you stepped and you had to be careful because if you weighted one foot you would go in past your knees, so you had to look around and find some more firm sand. It was a kind of fun and refreshing walk to be down in the water, the fresh water flowing into this salt lake.
Tomorrow we’re up early for an attempt on a peak that is nearby. I’ll tell you more about that as we’re climbing it, just for acclimatization but it’s going to up the ante and allow us to see how we breath and move possibly as high at the very summit at 18 000 feet. This as I mentioned yesterday is where there’s one half the air pressure that there is at sea level. So we’ll see how we’re acclimatized when we get up there and we’ll report to you from the top if possible. Maybe it’ll be too windy but we’ll try to give you a call from somewhere along the way or the very summit tomorrow. |
