The beauty of its
Ridge and stunning surroundings, makes it one of the most beautiful
summits of the Kondoriri Valley. Its 5330 m of altitude are a great
way to get the first perception of what a exposed and safe climbing
is, due to the ridge climbing is, doubtless the more exiting type of
climbing, specially if iced. From its spectacular summit we will be
able to still, both summits Huayna and the Kondoriri who dwarfs the
surrounding peaks
Try it out and enjoy with us this great summit!!!!

General
information
Even there is not any kind
of sanity control office, which requires sanity and vaccinattion certificates,
it´s highly recomendable to prevent such few complicattions that
could be avoided without much problems, before getting bolivia and may
become a reason to ruin your loved and long planned vacattions.
There are no reasons to worry about Yellow fever up on the mountains,
thus, there is no reasons to avoid being vaccinated. In case of you
plan to visit the Yungas, you will be asked if you have taken the proper
inmunizattion, and it´s for your own benefit you absolutely need
to be protected. So many climbers plans t visit the Yungas once being
in La Paz, to avoid Crows, or even to recorver after a long climbing
season.
There is also some risk of
getting hepatitys, Tethanus, due to lack of higiene in some of places
which are far apart of what we expect in our own countries. And treatments
to solve this disseases are not always handy in terms of time or reliability.
Diarhoeas are common in most
of developping countries.As a matter of fact we can consider we will
have it once in a trip, and we need to be prepared for this beforehand.
One of the most important spread ways is the water. DRINK ALLWAYS BOTTLED
AND SEALED WATER Or carbonated soft drinks, do not accept open bottles
due to often they are refilled and the sanity condittions are not a
issue in some places . Soft drinks are almost allways safer, due to
the CO2 which decreases PH and kills germs. Take care about food, specially
if street coocked, the only change of habits may be a cause of diarhoeas,
and the excessive deep fried cocking style might be a cause, that even
mild will ruins a part of your trip.
Allways pack in your kitbag one or two rehidrattion salt sachets, such
Gastrolite, and check out with your doctor about medicattion doses and
treatment in case of diarhoeas. As a manner of informattion, and without
any intentions of replace a professional opinion, Ciplofloxacine( antibiotic)
and Loperamide(antidiaroheic) are the two most common drugs used for
travellers to remote areas..
Even when Security at Bolivia are not a big Issue, and it´s pretty
safe to walk round, we were seeing how everyyear, the crimilarity are
raising and there are more stories about pickpockets and robaries to
tourists. Bolivians are great people and honest, but influences are
making it change, so take cara specially if you are travelling by yourselve
with a big lugagge.
