For an average-sized fish, dorado catfish migrate incredible distances to spawn. They can travel from the far western #Amazon to their spawning estuaries in the #AndesMountains and back a distance of more than 7,000 miles. That's the distance between Chings and #HongKongl

#Llamas roam freely at #MachuPicchu. They are very good at ignoring all of the people.

Always trying to remember to duck when trying to get through tight places as quickly as possible. This is the only part of the trail that leads you literally through the mountain.

What goes up, must come down. It's a tight squeeze coming down from the peak of #HuaynaPicchu. Since there is less space at the peak, the trail becomes one way up and a separate way down.

The tippy top of #HuaynaPicchu - 2667 meters/8751 feet. Who doesn't love a good walk through the clouds?

The best views of #MachuPicchu are before you reach the summit of #HuaynaPicchu. Which is wonderful, because you will be tired and it's an excellent reason to stop and rest.

To hike #HuaynaPichhu you have to present your passport and sign in at the check point. Only 400 people are allowed to #hike per day. Tickets should be purchased at least 2-3 months in advance.

If you want a bird's eye view of #MachuPicchu, signing up to hike #HuaynaPicchu might be for you. The entrance is located within Machu Picchu, so you must purchase a ticket for both.

I love walking through clouds! The part of the #AndesMountains that #MachuPicchu is located in is also called a #CloudForest.

No drama today, just calm chit-chat with this little bird, the Brown-backed Chat-Tyrant 🪶 #birdsoftheworld #birdsofperu #birding #birdphotography #brownbackedchattyrant #andesmountains
The ride up to #MachuPicchu is relatively terrifying, as there are no guard rails, blind curves, not nearly enough room for buses to inch around each other, but the scenery is fantastic.

There are three choices for getting to #MachuPicchu: a 4 day hike on the #IncanTrail, a 25 min bus ride, or a 1 1/2 uphill hike from Aguas Calientes. With time being a limiting factor, we chose the bus.

The town of #AguasCalientes is nestled deep in a valley of the #AndesMountains.
