Panorama Photo

Von den Anden sieht man immer herrliche Bilder bei herrlichem Wetter,
aber irgendwann muss es ja auch mal sehr viel schneien, wo sonst kämen die dicken eisgepanzerten Gipfel her.

Another stunning Andes-shot Alberto. The bigger version is even more impressive (as the rest of your shots in that region)

Luoghi meravigliosi.

Günter: in Huaraz (drier side) data reported by guidebooks speak of 100-130 mm rain per month since Jan to Mar, 50-70 per month since Oct to Dec.
Less that 10 mm per month in Jun - Aug.
However, as I experienced directly:
1) the climate is completey different from one to the other side of the Cordillera, and the situation depicted in N.26856 is very common;
2) the fine weather that I had in Carhuascancha, on the rainy side, turned out to be the exception. On the second-highest pass (Gara-Gara, 4830 m, panorama not yet published) of the Alpamayo - Santa Cruz loop, I had in a few hours a good deal of the monthly amount of rain/snow reported in books, and the same happened, only a bit more softly, a couple of days later, on the highest pass (Osoruri, 4860).
Climate is changing very quickly also in the Andes.

Scary perspectives on the climate change perspective; every other perspective are great from here. BR Jan.
