Climbers' Social: Thin air and new friends - South America by bike
*Speaker:* Vivian White
*Tuesday 5 November 2024*
In May 2024 Vivian White packed his bike in a box and made his way to the coastal city of Lima, Peru. After a long bus ride to the mountaineering and trekking town of Huaraz he embarked on a journey Southbound. Here he met two French brothers.
Journey South as we visit historic sites like Machu Picchu, climb Huayna Potosi (6088m), cross the Salar de Uyuni, survive the wind and cold of the Atacama desert and finally enjoy the geological wonders of Northern Argentina. Covering over 4000km in little over 3 months the landscapes of South America made for a lasting impression that justifies a return.
