Day 4 - Laguna Mitococha to Carhuacocha
24 Jun 2007
Today we trekked to Carhuacocha, a beautiful lake where we would camp for 2 nights. Getting there involved crossing a pass called Yanapunta Pass (4640m). This was a gentler pass than yesterday, with expansive mountain views and beautiful weather.
|  |  | Early in the morning at Laguna Mitococha, fantastic views across the lake towards the glaciated peaks of Mituraju and Jirishanca. | 
|  |  | Our donkeys catch up to us as we cross the gentle and expansive Yanapunta at 4640m. | 
|  |  | We descend open grassy vales until suddenly the vista of Laguna Carhuacocha opens out before us. We have lunch here admiring this fantastic view. | 
|  |  | Kendy poses for the camera at our lunch spot overlooking Laguna Carhuacocha. | 
|  |  | Beautiful reflections from near our campsite at Laguna Carhuacocha. The altitude of this lake and campsite is 4138m. | 
|  |  | In the afternoon, stormy clouds envelop the peaks that surround the lake. |
