I spent 5 days hiking through the Peruvian Andes to the "Lost City of the Incas," Machu Picchu. From the rugged snow-capped peaks all the way to the rainforest, this journey to one of the seven wonders of the world was nothing short of breathtaking. Seeing the impressive architecture of the Incan citadel was truly an unforgettable experience.
A small group of us who hiked to Machu Picchu carpooled together to Rainbow Mountain (also known by several other names, including Vinicunca, or Winikunka, Montaña de Siete Colores (translation: Mountain of seven colors), or Montaña Arcoíris. At an altitude of over 17,000 feet, the frigid wind and lack of oxygen made for a difficult trek to the mountain. The panoramic scenery was utterly jaw dropping and left me speechless. The vivid colors, the unique patterns of rocks and other minerals, and the topography of the area was so unique, I wouldnt have believed it existed if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. It is truly a magnificent place.
